Ok I just read some comments about the iPod on another forum. One said something to the effect that, Breakout will drain the battary in 5 hours. Is that at all possible?

Another post said, that the iPod's hard drive lasts for a year.

Now I know some iPods may be a lemon, but for the most part are these people (PeeCee users btw) just being stupid and talking about something they no nothing about? I'm just curious thats all. It just ticks me off when ppl put down Apple products when I know they have no idea what they're talking about and just say it just to put Apple down :mad: :rolleyes:

Use the Backlight and Play a song... it will drain the battery in 5 hours.

Use the iPod hard drive to run a server 48/7 and place it on a vibrating platform, it will die in a year.

FUD!

iPods, good ones, are fairly durable. My 1st Generation still holds an 8 hour charge (lost 2 hours over 3 years) and also has survived many drops and falls. The hard drive is still good. :)
