The battery life takes that big of a hit from the CF to SDXC adapter?
Doesn't iTunes also play off the memory card?
Why would battery life be different between iTunes and Rockbox?

I have 15,400+ songs on my 2nd gen Mini. Getting an average of 21 hours of straight battery using the stock firmware.
It last longer overall. When playing I had it running for about 13 hours the other day, just letting it play to see how long it would last. This was on itunes mode though. I did a comparison with it in rockbox mode and last about 7hours or so, I haven't got a good rockbox mode comparison just yet though.
Stock 650
Everything I've read says the stock battery is a 400mAh cell. I suspect the aftermarket replacement batteries don't have a much higher capacity than that. They're just printing inflated lies on the label.
Hey everyone, I dug up my iPod Mini (2nd generation) a little while ago and have been thinking of modding it. Though I do have a few questions.
1) From what I can tell, if I were to use a CF card, I would not need an adapter, correct? Just plug into the micro drive's socket?
2) Do I need a particular type of CF card, a certain speed, or any CF card will do?
Thanks
1) Correct... no adapter needed if you use a CF card.
2) Except for possibly at the ends of the spectrum (very big or very small/old), any CF should work.
I was wondering about this too because I noticed someone said they were using a Tarkan adapter but I think that was to use with a SD card. With so many SD to CF adapters available is there a reason to use a Tarkan for a Mini?
