hate the ipod?

check out one of these instead.

Mostly targeted at the Nano crowd, as far as high-capacity storage devices go, the ipod (60gb) is still relatively safe with few competitors.

the ipod software and its fuzzy logic is quite amazing. It works quite well and is way better than the dell dj that is its mainstream competetor.

you have to send your ipod back to apple to get the batteries replaced... and you don't even get the same ipod back, you get a refurbished one back... so if you had any engravings on it then you're just shit out of luck

no there are places online where you can buy your own batteries and do it yourself. you can also take it to some 3rd part repair places and they'll do it for you

yeah...i received the mailings from the class action lawsuit against apple for the 3rd gen battery defects...


people were sending in their personally engraved ipods and getting refurbed ones back...that's actually what fueled the lawsuit


as for my 3rd generation ipod? it makes a great coaster
