What will happen to all our iPods?

[Jazz2011]

I was just wondering what do you think will Apple do with all the first gen nanos that they are getting?

[OllyW]

They will probably just scrap them and recycle the materials.

Same question for the two iPod Touch 1stGen. No upgrade anymore ? No iCloud, nothing. Just laying in ten shelf and fetching dust.

As much as I like the frequent upgrade to get something new the pile old stuff I couldn't sell is a bit disturbing.

All your iPods are belong to us.

This is like when Apple took back the Apple I so you could get a deal on Apple II. "Give us that POS Apple I back, it will never be worth anything." :D

Give it to a neighbor for their kids to use, that's what I do. I keep one back for a spare, and move the older ones out. Except the 2nd gen nanos, I love those things and still have some of them, loaded up with flavor-of-day picks on them, a few gig of jazz or blues or whatever on each. And as far as iPod touch 1st gen goes, I kept that for use with an old Altec Lansing speakerdock (that won't charge the later devices anyway), and I use it for audiobooks upstairs. Bring it down a couple times a year and put different books on it.

Keep it in mint condition to sell in a few years down the road.

If I had the funds I certainly would buy all colors of the ipod nano.
