Musta bought him an ipod for his birthday.
The way things change from moment to moment, how are we supposed to know what we’re commenting on?
I bought a refurbished one from Apple and it doesn’t have any distinguishing stickers that say it is refurbished.
The title of the thread is a good indicator. In this case, the discussion should be geared toward the Apple iPod 30GB Video currently available.
I still have my 30 Gb Video that I got new over a year and a half ago. I really haven’t had any issues with mine now that I use a Vista-equipped Laptop. I remembering hearing something about issues with disconnecting it while syncing, but I think they were covered in i-Tunes’ last update. Still, I love mine, even though m4a isn’t the most compatible of formats, however if you prefer mp3, a quick switch under the i-Tunes importing settings, and you’re good to go.
In for 3!!! So glad to see this - now my brother and dad will be able to run RockBox too!
l o l I notice woot been a little late in the past few nights starting well past 1:00 oh well as long as theirs a good deal. I probably would have bought this if I didn’t by the Zune from last year, but its all good though I have the Zune and the ipod 4th gen (photo/color).
What’s the link to that?
fuck apple kthx
Thanks for the reply! I’m looking to buy one for my little sister as this generation is no longer available from the Apple refurb section.
In for one, great price, even as refurb, cant really beat it as far as I’ve seen, and I’ll need to upgrade soon anyway. Thanks woot
It’s also rockbox compatible! Yay!
50 Dollar Cable? Are you talking about the RCA (Red, Yellow, White) component cable? I bought mine for $20, an official apple product that I think I got from the apple online store. I say I think, because I can’t quite remember. I used to hook my Video to a standard CRT television set, and it put out a pretty clear picture, with only occasional pixelation. It’s been awhile. But still, I agree that the docks are overpriced.
In for one. Mom’s birthday is on Monday and she had been talking about getting an mp3 player for a while now. Woot has good timing.
Well, after owning an iPhone for a year now, I had come close to buying an iPod Classic so that I could fit all 20GB of my music instead of being limited to 8GB. Only thing is, I hate the new interface on the damn Classics that are in stores right now. It’s clunky and slow, especially if you have custom album art.
Then… I saw this 5th-Gen iPod on Woot. Hallelujah! I’m in for one. Cannot wait to get it!
The problem with I-pod - well one of the problems is I-tunes. Apple has a tighter grip on music “rights” than anything microsoft ever made. Zune is easier, no problems transferring songs and has a better picture.
Remember that famous apple commercial in the late 70s or early 80s when the runner came in to the big room with a huge monitor, threw a hammer at the monitor destroying it - as to say Apple is here to bring down the big corporation.
Well guess what, Apple has BECOME the worst corporation of all - yes worse that microsoft. Ever wonder why you cant download a program to your I-phone? It’s all about control. They want complete control of all software, music etc.
It happened right under your noses, and you all thought you were so cool and rebellious with your ipods - only to feed the giant monolith that is now Apple.
Oh yeah, ipods suck there I officially mentioned the product.
AGREED! I bought some generic apple-looking thing off eBay and it works WAY better than my ipod and is so much easier to use!
the 30g ipod is a great buy, it just doesn’t match my skin color, was really hoping for the Juan Valdez coffee pod maker…
wow even deleted that, even after the example of the skin color taken from your own post regarding, “why do my posts get deleted?”
is the ipod really a better mp3 player than lets say creative or zune. personally own a creative, never really wanted to get involved in the apple kick but am thinking about changing, any advise would be great.
The description says its only the 90 woot warranty. Does that mean This refurbished ipod does not contain the general 1 year ipod warranty?
60 gig refurbished on ebay for 30 bucks more. NOT A GOOD DEAL… NOT BAD BUT NOT WOOT WORTHY.
Love, the new guy
