I bought a Windows formatted 2nd gen iPod, and used it with Windows and MusicMatch until I switched to a Mac. Then, I formatted the iPod to Mac format for use with iTunes on my Mac.

Now, I'm getting a 3rd gen 20gb iPod and selling my old one to a Windows user. Now that iTunes for Windows is out, will he be able to use it like it is, or will I need to format it back to FAT32?

TIA,
Jason

He'll have to format it to FAT32.
The Mac can read FAT32 and NTFS, but Microsoft isn't really interested in anyone's filesystem but their own.

Oh, I was hoping that iTunes for Windows included some kind of "MacDrive" type software that would let the HFS formats work.

I did buy Xplay when I switched to the Mac so I could keep using the iPod on my PC if necessary. Maybe I can transfer the license to him.
