It was odd Storm, i hate iPods, a lot, but since i have a Mac, and love to listen to my music, had to sell my Creative Zen Vision:M to get an iPod just so i can use iTunes to sync without any 3rd party software etc i was in town, didnt think about getting an iPod, quickly nipped into Currys, and went up to the guy and said i'll take that, got out of the store, was like 'errr i just got an iPod'....Anyway, its a really nice design, small, light weight, seems quite durable. Sound quality, quite poor, but that was expected, since having a Creative and iRiver in the past. It will do me for now :)

how did you manage a free of charge trade in?
Well, I only got my Nano about 2 months ago. So I just brought it in with the reciept and said I wasn't happy with it, and I would like to try the new one instead. Actually first I traded it for a Creative Zen V, but my PC was unable to find the drivers for some reason. I looked on the Creative foums and found this is a somewhat common problem, so I just brought the Creative back and traded it for the new Nano. Even got about $40 store credit :laugh: .

It's very easy to return things at large chain stores. Just be assertive, and if they argue, ask to talk to the manager. I also traded my 1st gen DS for a DS Lite at Wallmart with no reciept :p .

Target and Costco probably have the best return policies around. At Costco, you can literally returns things w/o receipts.

I had heard the same thing of their UK returns policy too. People have attached a receipt to a back of a microwave and when it went wrong about 4 years later took it back and got a new one. :cool:

Costco rocks. My mum has returned her iron about eight times because it keeps breaking, and Costco just take it back. Which is why people love them because they do not give you hassle.

I do not think the UK Costco sell's iPod's though does it?

The Costco food is awesome as well!

I picked one up friday and I'm loving it, I still haven't come close to using all 8 gigs.

The screen has a screen protector on it :)

For those wondering, the new earbuds fit better than the old ones and they do block out sound alot.

ive got the Green Nano, and here are the pics if you wanted to see the comparison with the mini :]

The new ipods look so cheap and nasty.

At least the old mini had scroll wheel controls that were colour matched with the ipod. These days the controls are either black or grey regardless of the colour of the ipod.

    • U.S. partially reverses Anthropic AI ban for Mythos but keeps Fable 5 off the market

      This is weird. Mythos is more unrestricted compared to Fable. Technically it poses more risk!!

      This is a great thing, I always have issues with Verizon while inside of certain football stadiums due to the saturation and walls blocking signal so a LOS way to connect would be great. Verizon was supposed to be offering sat data this year but I've not heard a word of it lately. Dude is sending rockets into space in a cheap manner, low waste foot print and has a great product with solar/battery tech. We would be so far behind China right now if not for him and a push to get back into space.

      illegally? Proof of that? Seems you are posting misinformation or well a pure straight up lie cause there is zero proof of such a thing. But I get it...
