Ipod Video - what video format?

I'm looking at getting an Ipod Video but I know absolutely bugger all about them. What sort of format does the music and videos have to be in to play on an Ipod? How do you get it into that format? Also, I saw some Ipods on eBay and the starting bid was something like $10.00! How can that be right? Are those sorts of things some kind of scam or what? The seller can't possibly make any money out of selling Ipods that cheap!

I had a play with one of those new ipod touches the other day (basically an i-phone minus the phone part), great toy, super sexy, only 16 gig file size though, so wouldn't take long to fill up if you've got a lot of movies and tv shows. You can get one of the older 80 gig models pretty cheap now since the release of the touch, they're not as sexy though, the screen is a lot smaller and you can't surf the net on them.

Touch has bigger screen but you only get 16 gig.. i would go with a classic 80 or 160 gig as stated before..

Before I go and buy an Ipod of any kind I want to know HOW to covert music and video into the right format so that it will play on an ipod. Can someone please tell me how to do this?

I said above in my first post you need to use a iPod FOrmat Converter.. Search it in google to download one or just drop in to harvey norman and they have them for about $15.. Easy to use..

I have an iPhone and like it. If you happen to need a new phone, don't use Three as your network, can deal with 8GB of space, then it might be worth a shot. I got mine in, put in my Optus sim and it worked straight away. Hit the Contact Hoops link at the top of the page if you want one as I can get more.

iTunes seems to convert some videos into the right format - try that first.
