Ah yes, I've been wanting to do something like this for some time.  
Nearly a year ago I wrote in my blog:

"Should be easy.  In fact, if somebody gives me an iPod, I'll implement 
it..."
( http://www.statusq.org/2002/04/02.html )

Somebody has since given me an iPod, but I haven't done it yet :-)

There are some utilities which allow you to read arbitrary text files 
on an iPod by converting them into very long fields in 'contacts' 
entries, but I was distressed to discover that the iPod was horribly 
slow to scroll through them.  An outline, which used multiple entries 
instead of one very big one, should be much more manageable.
