When my brother got his last year through the educational site, it was sent with his Macbook. I don't know how they're going to do it this year.
The following link should answer any questions regarding the offer:

Classics and Nanos also fall under the offer ($199 and $179 rebates respectively). You are also able to get $200 off the price of either the 32GB or 64GB iPod Touch.
For all the UK people.
I've just been into the Cardiff Apple retail store to ask about the BTS and the guy I spoke to wasn't to sure so asked his supervisor who said that it is supposed to go live today/tomorrow but they haven't been supplied with the pricing details or anything yet so he said it should definitely be by end of this week/early next week.

One of the main reasons for the promo is to clear iPod inventory before new models come out in the fall.
That's because there is no 3rd-gen 8GB model. You can still apply the discount to a higher capacity 3rd-gen model.
my first touch 
If you look at the Buyer's guide on this site, the most of the ipods have reached the end of the cycle. Will they be updated before the end of this promo (sept 7) or afterwards.
Should I get myself my new mac right now with a soon to be older version of the ipod touch or wait a bit ?
Cheers,

I believe that even if they do update they will still send you a previous generation Ipod. One of the reasons for this promotion is to get rid of older ipods.
I hope it starts in Finland tomorrow then.
I was kinda hoping the rebate would be 299 $/ for the 32 GB iPod Touch. No point in getting the 8 GB version IMO. Better to buy the 32 GB one even if you're selling it. I'd imagine it'd be much easier to sell than the 8 GB one as it's 3rd gen + 4 times the capacity for only 100 $/ more.

I bought my macbook pro, ipod, and printer this morning. I got an email with my order on it, and it seems that you don't have to do a thing for the free iPod rebate, it comes right off. I bought a 64gb touch and was only charged 200 dollars for it, no mailing, nothing. However, the printer I bought was 129 dollars, and the 99 dollar rebate off of it did not appear on the order. In other people's experiences, will I be able to get this printer for 100 dollars off? It seems like there is just a bit more of a process than the free iPod.
Do you happen to live in Connecticut or Rhode Island? I read that the deal is automatically applied to people who are having their items shipped to these locations.
