« on: December 28, 2009, 05:44:26 PM »

figures this happens after christmas...

ipod touch went titz up today.  headphone jack issue.  repair can run from $50 to $100.  also, i've noticed the battery not working correctly.  battery replacement 50 - 75 smack-a-roos.

so...if i consider the maximum repair cost...i'm in it for 175.  looks like a new one is in order.  i'm looking at the 5th generation ipod nano. 

any thoughts...comments?  suggestions?

wal-mart has the nano for $133.00 + no tax.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

Zune has worked great so far, so has my I-Phone. I would go with the I-Pod touch or the Zune Hd.

Wal-mart will take almost anything back.

It's worth a try, but I'd delete all your "barely legal" videos before you attempt this.

You can keep a wooden stake in your trunk
On the off-chance that the fairy tales ain't bunk
And Imma keep a bottle of that funk
To get motel parking lot, balcony crunk.

Two of my in-laws got nanos right before Christmas.  If I didn't already have an old 30gb classic and a new 32gb touch, I would be getting one.  The camera was enough to sell me on them.
