Hello

Ok heres the problem,

I have a touch wheel ipod which Can not do the whole bookmarking thing with podcasts. You have to have a Click wheel ipod. BOOOOO!

I know I didn't believe it either.
Anyway, Does anyone have an idea, how I could do the following:

1. Convert all new podcasts(unlistened to) and convert them to AAC so my ipod can bookmark them and I can keep them in sync.

2. Trash the old mp3 files. It seems that if I use the convert to AAC It does convert but leaves the old file in the folder in the itunesMusic folder in the home directory. I was thinking an automator script or an applescript.

Any thoughts would be great. I like hte fact that iTunes now supports podcasts but I hate it when I have to look for the place where I left off in the car. I may go back to ipodderX.

Thanks for the time
