Smart tie-in with Pepsi 100 million iTunes Superbowl promotion or have iPod sales really dropped off after holidays and iPod mini?

is this posted on the website or something? I tried looking and i didn't see anything....if i were to walk into the apple store and pick one up, they would know about the promotion (i am assuming yes, i just don't to try to buy one and have them look at me and say, "uh what are you talking about?" in addition to the student discount?

thanks!

it shows up when you checkout.

Looks like they're pushing iTunes, ITMS, and the iPod....most likely at the expense of the new G5s....bleh :(

Not to bring up a worked over topic, but with the 10% off a 15 GB iPod, it is now only $20 more than an iPod mini. This tells me that the iPod mini really is #1 at the Apple Store, and didn't need to be included in the two day promotion.

if the 10% off the panther kickoff night was any indication, you won't be able to combine the 10% off with edu. discount.

if you read the terms, it clearly states that it can't be used electronically (i.e. online) with edu. discount. i'm not sure about going to a store, but i doubt you can combine it with the edu. discount.

there was one guy who posted that he got both 10% special discount and edu. discount for his PB back in panther kickoff night, but he was an exception rather than the rule...

yeah, i called the apple store in VA and they said they were both exclusive of each other :( but i bought one anyway! i got the 20gb one...it's only ten bucks cheaper than what I would have paid had i used the student discount, but hey ten bucks is ten bucks for a poor college student! :D

who can afford an ipod?

thats an oxymoron if i've ever heard one...

HAH! I ordered mine (15 GB) Friday night, Jan 30!!! Luckily I'm a student, so I got the same discount. Were I not a student I'd be cussing apple right now.

My ipod left shanghai this morning, so it should be here by wednesday. I can hardly wait.

I had been thinking about buying some speakers for my emac, and the Creature II speakers are also 10% off which would make them $89.10, plus sales tax.....is that a good deal? Does anyone have positive/negative experiences with these speakers?

I've listened to the creatures in the store, and the sound quality is less than impressive. At the local compusa, they have about 15 sets of comp. speakers set up, and the logitech 2.1 THX certified speakers are hands down the best. They cost $180, but the sound quality is OUTSTANDING. If you just want to hear some tunes in the background, the creatures will be fine, but if loudness, quality and crispness at high volumes are important, then check out the THX's.

I have to disagree. I have the Creature and they sound great. I'm sure you can get much better sounding speakers, but not for the price of the creature ones. And at $89.10 the price is perfect.
