I ordered the new 80g.

1. What is the best way to hook up audio cables? 1/8" Y adapter into RCA's out of the headphone jack or the line level dock adapter into the 1/8"/RCA? Same question for video.

2. What do you think about the Apple AV kit which has cables, dock, etc.?

3. Anyone care to spell out the steps/software needed to transfer my 'backed-up' DVD's onto the Ipod?

Thanks
I can only answer #1. Depends on where you're listening. In the car, the headphone jack will produce acceptable quality. But if you plug into a higher-end audio system, you'll probably want the dock connector adapter.

For the other answers, you'll find a lot of good info here, but Apple has an iPod support forum which deals with just about every question.
