A one-keystroke iPod eject script
Authored by: DavidRavenMoon on Oct 01, '04 09:33:05AM

Keeping an iPod plugged into a sleeping Mac will drain the battery! I only connect mine to the computer when I update it. Otherwise I use the power adaptor with an extra cable for charging. That way I just unplug it in the morning and go! If I left it connected to my G4 I'd either have to leave the computer running all night, or wake it in the morning, which would both kill the battery and wake my wife! (since the Mac's in our bedroom).. and leaving the computer running all night is just a waste of energy and dumb.
