15GB iPod Offer

Is this offer still on

Has anyone heard or know if Apple is still offering the 15GB IPOD if you order a mini?
I want a 15GB and am seriously thinking of ordering the mini in hopes of getting the IPOD
Thanks!!!!!!!

Take a chance, but I wouldn't be too sure about it... I thought they were suppose to start being shipped regularly... Puh...

The few, the proud, the iPod mini owners 😉

Try it...order the mini and see what happens.

I waltzed in to the Chicago Michigan Ave store last Thursday hoping to skip out with a mini, but they were out. They said that they might have some in a week or two, but they would be gone 1 minute after they opened the doors in the morning. They tried to talk me into a 15GB, and they did, and I love it, of course. But they really seemed to be pushing the 15s. There were stacks of then behind the register. Immediately, I thought they're trying to liquidate that model to make way for the new bumped versions due out in the next few months or whatever.

Or, maybe I've watched to many Michael Moore movies and think everything is a damned conspiracy... not quite sure.

I'd say get the mini and spend the money you saved on some Shure E3c earbuds ($179.00)...MAN those iPod headphones suck.

i'm sure this has already been said, but i was just thinking, and this makes perfect sense. Apple wants to update the iPod line, so they give away as many 15GB models as they can to reduce stock. this reduces demand for minis, which is good for apple because there isn't very much supply. Then, when they update them and phase out the 15GB model, there won't be any stock left over. everyone wins 😀 lol, i was about to buy an ipod, then i realized they were about to update the line. thats good, but i want an ipod now 🙁

EDIT: I may be slow, but i also realized that 15GB is better than 4GB for Apple...that is 11 more GB that you can DL from the iTMS!!! 😛
