We also marked down the prices of the previous models. So if the new colors don’t mean anything to you, time to save a few bucks.
From the email my manager sent me, these are the new prices:
[font=Arial][/font]
[font=Arial]30GB Video - $249[/font]
[font=Arial][/font]
[font=Arial][/font]
[font=Arial]We have them all in stock I believe. PM me if interested or stop at UBMicro and ask for Joe.[/font]

My work, UBMicro will be selling the new iPods.

[font=Arial]As for the new models, we ordered them, but probably won’t be in for 2-3 weeks based on Apple’s crappy shipping estimates.[/font]
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.

so when will this be up? if its 249, the student discount must take a few bucks off of that
damn, I was about to buy a used shuffle or nano. fuck that, now I’m gonna buy a 30 gig for $~235 (hopefully)!!!
I’ll sell you my 30GB Video Ipod because I will probably pick up a new one now that they extended the video life
… I’ll have a black 60GB up for sale soon/now if anyone wants

mine got stolen from car and I"m thinking of getting another 30gb… I dunno though, gotta save my pennies and nickles. But it’s easier now that there’s a price drop.

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.
so the new ones will be cheaper, and have better battery life? when will they become available?

any word on when they will get marked down at ubmicro? and by how much?
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.
