IPOD BATTERIES!!! This is from the Apple web site - step by step instructions on how to tell if your IPod battery is really giving you accurate readings & holding a full charge. My question is, WHO THE FUCK IS GONNA GO THROUGH ALL THIS BULLSHIT??? Don't these bitches know I have a job? ![]() iPod Battery Test Instructions

screw all that...they should just own up to the fact that their batteries are shit anyway. i've only had my ipod mini for a few months and i already gotta go get the battery replaced. i've got it playing right now (it's hooked up to my computer's speakers) and the damn battery indicator's already showing that there's only 3/4 worth of juice in it. i've only had it on for about an hour or so!

![]() do the sell solar powered ones ? ![]() if they actually did have solar-powered ipods, i'd be s.o.l. right now since there's barely been any sun lately. ![]() | |

I've had my (full size, 4th Generation) iPod for over a year and a half, play it nearly every day at work for at least six hours a day (and then some) since day one. I now work 12 hour days and still get over 10 hours out of one charge. I think this is pretty damn good, am I in the minority here? -->> This Space 4 Rent <<--

if you buy a harmonica you can learn to play as many songs as you like on it and you don't need a battery for it. ![]() | |

Don't you people have it charging while playing when you're home?
I have a charging/playing cradle on my desk, another at work and another at the car so I only use batteries when I go out for a walk (always less than an hour) My batteries might have been dead for a year and I wouldn't know ![]() | |

![]() ![]() Naw, I'm in MPLS, and work 12 hours in a windowless room, I haven't seen the sun since last September. I'm beginning to suspect the whole concept of a "sun" is just a crual joke... -->> This Space 4 Rent <<--

![]() ![]() 18 hours, consistently. It's Fugly and it's huge (especially compared to the mini) - I wouldn't touch it w/a 10-foot pole - and I'm a "Sony" guy (or at least, I used to be, they really just are not as innovative/cool as they used to be...) -->> This Space 4 Rent <<--

Actually, nota bad idea, as the mini's are often going for the same price you bought it for, then you can get a nano! (which, upon release, made the mini's instantly collectables) -->> This Space 4 Rent <<--

I could see how the size is a bit much to those that are looking for a small player. I don't find it ugly at all, personal taste I guess. I love it. | |

It's always good when someone is happy w/what they got. I just cannot, in good concience, recommend anything other then an iPod (shuffle, nano, or 'regular') to anyone. The whole user experience and interface, from start to finish, is unmatched in the industry. As with any product, none of the iPods are perfect, their just over all better then any of the competition, and reasonably/competitively priced (arguably a first for Apple). And don't even get me started on the accessory market... -->> This Space 4 Rent <<--
