This is some cool news. Lick has posted a WIP of his new DS Media player that aims to emulate the usage of an iPod. He's even thinking of making is skinnable. Looks cool.

I know about the consequences, but you can still remind me, if you need to.
I've been building an iPod-look-a-like music player for the DS. I have implemented the ClickWheel(TM) completely, and now I'll be working on the menu, and then I'll add playback of the MP3 and OGG formats.
I know that Apple won't like this. I'm thinking of making the player -skinnable- and use a different default skin. Also, I could release it with a message like: "If you like this software, buy an iPod! We LOVE APPLE!"
It still runs on emulators right now, but will not later. - Use touchscreen to control the ClickWheel. - Press X to reset to bootmenu.
Loaded it up on my DS-X, and its works great. The top screen will relay back what has been pressed. The cycling works well and it picks up all button presses as well.
Looks very stable and this will be a great piece of software when its released
I look forward to see what the media play back is going to be like. Always good to see the mention of ogg playback included
Just tell me... Which type of music files should I put in my Mini-SD card? I have an M3 Mini-SD and I took the file of the IPod and putted it in the same folder where the music files were (.gbs an .mp3) and the Ipod does not find them

There is no support for music playback as yet. It is currently only the interface. He does plan on enabling both mp3/ogg playback
Updates: - menu´s are not images anymore. There´s a font renderer. - I added PicodriveDS 0.1.6 fatlib and it´s working. - Batteryicon responds to the charger-plug. (Plug in and see!) - Hold play-resume and it will reset to the bootmenu. (libcartreset) - Pre-mature directory listing: go to Music->Songs - (edit, forgot) When the DS is closed, screens turn off and LED blinks.
Please be aware that there is currently a discussion in regards to the name and in no way is DS iPod the final name.
However it does appear to be progressing well and I will continue to post updates when I see them. Unless a major release is done I will continue to update this post rather than posting as a news item, so if you are excited like me.. keep looking back to this thread.
I will try and take a screenshot tonight as the nds doesn´t load in No$gba anymore (As previously stated by Lick)
New update to DS iPod, which adds the following features.

I made a hell lot of small changes and I added sound. Currently the Songs menu and the Now Playing screen are working (Ogg comments and ID3v1 tag implemented). Still no sound playback.
