My iPod Nano Died....

Thanks for all your replies everyone.

I agree with all points, but even though everytime it dropped may not have been due to my carelessness, bottom line is I was careless with it at times and now i'm suffering the consequences.

I called Apple, and it's going to cost me $32.46 shipping to have them take a look/fix/send it back to me.

On the hand, a $32.46 investment might save my $250 nano, but on the other, Apple could say they can't fix it, and there goes my $32.46+$250...

Should I do it?
 
Naw dude, just put the $30 towards a new iPod. Unless like, they guaranteed that they'll fix it. Then of course, send it. :confused:

I don't know if they'll gaurantee to fix it... that's the problem :down.

And I was just considering getting another nano or mp3 player.

Actually, Apple is pretty good about their repairs. I'd send it to them, personally.

Ok, if I do decide to send it to them, another question I have is:

Should I make them re-personalize my "new" ipod, delaying the shipping by a few days / a week...

or

Just get back a factory black ipod nano with no engraving.

Depends on what the engraving is and what it means to you, I'd say.

I realized how easy my question as to answer after I answered it.

Yea, it's really important.

I guess i'll spend another $32.46 for my nano.
 
Damn it, my nano came in the mail today. I'm glad I caught this thread.

LMFAO.

It's a great piece of technology... just don't drop it... a lot.
 
I've dropped my nano hundreds of times...and Ive only had it a couple months. I often toss it against the wall just to see if it will bounce back. It doesnt...just kinda slides down the side and hits the tile.

Not so much as a scratch on it.
 
Ninety-five percent of that post was true, by the waysome.
 
get a z5 instead :up:

Apple take the piss when my 2 year old ipod died they wanted £140 for a new 20 GB hard drive. I thought feck it and bought a new 30 GB model for not much more.

Don't you have an apple store near to take it into bud.

That's a good idea, go directly to an apple store, save on shipping :up:.

But those samsung MP3 players are lookin wicked cool, and they cost less than apple's mp3 players.
 
There are a variety of cases/covers that can help protect the iPod (including Nano) from a fall. I use the Toughskin for my iPod Video.

Nothing is foolproof, but it can help. There is a product called Otterbox (google it) that claims it can help withstand pretty bad impacts.

Check it out.
 
the Z5 is available in Canada, i dont know about the states tho.
