Excellent hunt! Great way to spend any Friday - even better on April Fools!

@mvl1014: My bosses have always given us something individually - not a corporate gift, so I feel the need to return the favor.

Has anyone tried this program enough to know how it handles A/V sync issues? I was a fan of Videora until I noticed that almost all AVI files that it converted got out of sync. Right now I'm using the free version of Any Video Converter. It has been the only program I've tried to keep my converted files in sync.

This was an awesome post with awesome suggestions. I've already made my Monday MIT reminder!!!

I don't know that I'd be willing to trust an iPod or any other USB device that cost over $5 to this mod. Its just something about Radio Shack parts, DIY soldering, and piles of hot glue that scare me.
