I hate itunes, and use my Creative Zen touch, and the sound quality is great, and 20gb is fine for me

Do you get a warranty with buying it through you guys? Cause Apple is selling the 30GB for $249 as well, and it comes with the warranty. Not sure about the other prices, was too lazy to check.

I haven’t even compared to see if the educational prices are lower. In the past they would be discounted right off the bat.

Yes, they come with a 1 year warranty standard. The only difference is you get it at a cheaper price. Exact same iPod.

If you want to buy one of the closeout G5 iPods, hurry up. Once they get marked down, they sell quickly.

How is it a cheaper price? You sell the 30GB for 249, apple now sells it for 249… 249=249. I might just be confused though, it’s been known to happen.

It looks like they aren’t offering educational prices. ??? No clue why.

We will have new ones in stock possibly Monday. I guess we can sell them to anyone.
