damn, i wish id seen this before i ordered my blue ipod mini :(

whats to stop someone from creating 5 email addresses to accept the offers?

hmm...

There is a whole website dedicated to this website -- some people have tried to pull tricks to get ipods for free, but the site is a bit smarter than that. For instance, if you sign up for something like AOL you need to provide your CC# and mailing address. Multiple email addys won't help you out.

Speaking of ipod minis, have you gotten yours? Have you had any problems?

didnt get it yet, its supposed to come to me at the end of the month. ill let you know if i experience such technical difficulties...

Am I the only one who thinks iPod is WAY overpriced?

I honestly don't think they are over priced. If anything, I think the 128Mb Mp3 players that run upwards of $100 are the rip-offs.

No doubt that's over priced, but c'mon. We've had this technology for years, there is no reason 15 gigs should cost 300 dollars. It's just a hard drive, that's it. $150 may be reasonable, but 300 bucks? No damn way.

Well, it is not just a hard drive. You've got a miniture hard drive, firewire, audio, the wheel and a screen. All being driven by a slick little operating system. All packaged in something that fits in your pocket.

When the ipod first came out it was $499 for 5 gigs, and those ipods were a bit chunkier than the ones out today.

I always thought they were a ripoff too, until I started using one.

And they wouldn't be so expensive (for me) if you guys would sign up at freeipods.com! ; )

Hahaha, true dat R-Dogg.

They are just applepriced. Which means overpriced and your hipster ass will pay too much for it and love it. It's not the technology you're buying. It's the image.

Apple certainly puts a premium price on their hardware, but the ipod isn't that overpriced when you compare it to the competition. The creative nomad will run you just about $270.

As for hipster appeal, I built an ipod holder into my ironic trucker cap. No one can stop me now!

Hahaha, I have to agree with Tomo on this one. I still don't think the iPod is worth the price. Maybe it is just hipster-sheik, regardless of the screen or hyper-space reactor. Although, if it created a worm hole to another dimension...I still wouldn't buy it. My MD player works just as well.

i've had my blue mini since the first week they were out. i must admit that 1. i only bought it because it looks cool, 2. i am a total moron with computer gadgets but i have to have them all, and 3. i have used it every single day for the past six months and it has brought me more joy and entertainment than anything else i've had EVER. also i use it all day at work and it makes me not kill myself. i think it all depends on how much you're gonna use it.
