SUGGESTION-Player for Portable USB Drive ...

With USB drives becoming truly portable, it makes sense to have an iPod that would act as a player for these drives.

I have a WD Passport 500GB with about 240GB of iTunes content, obviously too much for any iPod. The drive is small enough to fit into a backpack, briefcase or purse. With a dedicated player, having no content of its own other than an OS, it would be feasible to take this system on the road.

I guess the big problem would be how to supply the drive with enough power to last for a few hours. Since I have no idea what the power consumption is on the drive or what's available in terms of batteries, I'll leave that to the developers.

I would think there would be a big market for this.
