Here's what I found on Apple's Brasil iPod pages:
http://www.apple.com/br/ipod/musicandmore.html http://www.apple.com/br/ipodphoto/musicandmore.html It's in Portuguese: No menu Extras do iPod photo é possível encontrar alguns jogos para quebrar a rotina: Quiz Musical, Paciência, Tetris e Pára-Quedas – quatro títulos populares e muito coloridos. Translated in English: (using the translation widget) In the menu Extra of iPod photo is possible to find some games to break the routine: Musical Quiz, Patience, Tetris and Pára-Quedas - four popular headings and very colored. Tetris is also mentioned in the iPod page, but without the "very colored" adjective. Maybe it's just a typo... still it's a funny coincidence considering the recent rumors. VL-Tone --------- Casio VL-Tone aka VL-1: in 1981 it was the first "portable" music playing gadget that had a white plastic enclosure and a LCD screen. |

I really think that Tetris is not a word that has anything to do with bricks in Portuguese.
Searching for Tetris on .br pages with google resulted in pages almost all relating to games. No page seem to put the word in the same context as the word "brick" I do think it's possible that it was a mistake made by the translator while thinking about how to translate the "brick game" concept. But I'm pretty sure that Tetris doesn't stand for brick in Portuguese. If Apple doesn't put Tetris on the iPod soon then I may start to try to do it myself VL-Tone --------- Casio VL-Tone aka VL-1: in 1981 it was the first "portable" music playing gadget that had a white plastic enclosure and a LCD screen. |

It annoys me so much that Mac OS X comes with Portuguese-Brazilian instead of Portuguese-Portugal (that's why I use English)...and that Apple is in Brasil while here in Portugal we get a shitty IMC.

what i find weird is that the keyboard setting with the Portuguese Flag corresponds to the keyboard layout i used in Brazil, but the keyboard layout mapped to the Brazilian Flag setting is not.
I rather see the Brazilian Flag in the top corner of my screen when typing in Portuguese than the Portuguese flag. |

When has Apple offered wholly new features to old iPods via software updates?

My understanding was that this would be available for the existing iPod Photos. So why should it not come as a regular update, as soon as the features are announced?

That dude needs to clean his nails too... if your holding a technological marvel made by Apple you need to handle it appropriately.
