Jukepod describes its firmware as a pared-down Rockbox fork, with memory and storage handling tailored to older iPods and large music libraries. The companion flasher's displayed steps include inspecting card contents and preparing artwork, while the site also recommends adapters, cards, cables, batteries and opening tools by model.
