Yeah, what is Apple, the mob? Once you buy, you can never stop?
Fuck Apple.

Buy a Creative brand jukebox. I have a Nomad, dropped the thing countless times & it plays fine, its been in rain, the hard drive is easily replaceable, the battery pops out & can be replaced easily, & the Creative people are really nice even after the warranty expires (they’d better be, Apple is eating them alive). Anyway, the #1 seller usually could give less than 2 shits about you. There’s 9 million other buyers waiting in line. Creative will probably come to your house because they’re so far behind in sales.

the story says there’s no display, but the picture of it above clearly shows a display.

anyway, it’s a piece of crap, just like any apple product. there are much better players. even my cheapo stick mp3 player is better than ipod.

after the first 2 breakdowns, why didn’t hunniford figure out it wasn’t worth it? why did he get a 3rd, a 4th and a 5th unit? what a dope. what a maroon.

what an applehead. he could have got out soon, but decided to stay to get the full shafting.

hasn’t it already come out that these are built by cheap labor (50$ a month minus living expenses) in destitute conditions?

sorry i just don’t feel your pain ipod owners.

i owned one of the first hard drive mp3 players (Archos Jukebox 6000). That thing was a beast. a full sized 3.5″ hard drive with a casing and some bumpers on the edge. 6GB was the largest they had at the time. If i bought an mp3 player nowadays i would buy a creative labs player.
