yea i think after 300 full charges the battery fully dies and you have to either send it away to get a new battery or buy a new ipod.

Sony MD players are good but don't get em because they are gay. iPods are the best. You can't beat an iPod. =/ I think i'm only saying this because i'm tired.

QUOTE(waccoon @ Jul 31 2004, 9:26 AM) that's a pyramid scam they're running. nobody really gets one. people Do get them, it's just so many people sign up it will take a while. Depending on which site, for example, some say 12 people, so every 12 people that sign up the first person will get an ipod. So lets say your the first, right. After 12 people you will get an ipod. Then after another twelve, the second person who signed up will get an ipod, and so on and so forth. BUT Theres a catch. What happens when so many people sign up? if your the first, 1 x 12 = after 12 people. If your the 12, 12 x 12 = 144 need to sign up before you get ipod. If your the 144th, 144 x 12 = ? ( too lazy to check ).

Just get the new Terabyte harddrives 1000 gigabytes, or 1 terabyte. |

Eepp but what does a hard drive have to do with this? pssh.. lol But wow that's a huge ahrd drive... probably really expensive @_@ Anyways bleh Sony is good hahas even though ppl say it isn't. Bleh but the IPod looks sooo nice... sooo shiny.. and then there's that one dell thing that looks like an IPod but isn't.. it's about almost 300 I think. But anyways it holds alot and probably will alst longer.. But IPod.. soo cute! |
