ipod broke allready

[Shepps]

I've only had it a week. I havn't dropped it, mis used it but somehow thats happened. Its been in a exo iskin2, took it off today and noticed that..

Better take it back to dixons..

[Allen]

Hearing a lot of bad things about iPods lately....

[Universal]

That happened with mine but I just pushed it back in position. However yours looks slightly worse than mine was.

hey I had mine a few days and it refused to charge, that was the first week of Jan still waiting for the replacement off Apple.

I took mine back and i just cba with it all tbh. Too much hassle. I'l stick with my 64mb creative job- does everything i need and doesnt weigh a tonne. Just take it back mate and get a refund.

If i was buying a jukebox now i would seriously explore other avenues- the only worthy one being the zen

[Howard]

My Zen is great, bit bigger than the Ipod but I don't particularly care.

on the bright side shepps, it might make it easier to get access to that "irreplacable" battery now

have to say, much as i detest creative labs products, fair play for making the battery a £27 replacement instead of a $250 replacement

[bertie]

Ipod batteries are about $50 btw

[directhex]

from where? apple charge $99, and you don;t wanna open one up yourself

[directhex]

they only charge $99 now because of the bad press over the $250 blanket charge they normally apply to all faults in their products

[Shepps]

its done it again I still have a few days left on dixons 28 day return thing, and im seriously considering it. I really like it, and its so good to be able to listen to the music i feel like listening, rarther than the cd i have with me, but if its falling appart after a couple of weeks? Creative Zen or an iRiver maybe...

What shud i do? Return it? Keep it and put up with the gap that forms everytime its been in my pocket for a day ?

[Stubzz]

I for one would deffinatly not keep it! At the very least take it back and get another one, else it's just gonna keep doing it.

[Ethos]

Return it, even tho I said not to get one in irc ageees ago before you got it

[steve threlfall]

Return it mate. I got the store manager and he was really good about it- couldnt believe that i wasnt impressed with it though

[BEANFro Elite]

i heard that ipods were designed to break really easily, and i know the battries only have around 500 charges before they lose the ability to hold any more thats about 1 and a half years.

apple are up to too much and getting away with it.


the new smaller ipods were only gonna cost around £60-100 now look at them £200.
