iPod FINALLY got my $50 ipod battery settlement

[iKwick7]

got mine this week as well- it will either go towards a macbook or Leapord, depending on what kind of money I have when the macbooks come out.

doh, i didn't read mine carefully enough and took it to an apple retail store to use, and the guy told me it was online only

needless to say, these are still cool, but i havent found anything on apple.com to buy yet..

is everyone just now getting checks? i sent mine off a LONG time ago, and just though my parent's through away the check thinking it was junk mail. (even though i have my own apt, i still have most of my mail sent home b/c i often move apts. . . about once a year, though i will graduate soon and finally have my own place! . . . .that is if i find a job i like! (which i am sure i will!)) but anyway. . . is there a chance i might get my rebate check?

just got mine today. was bummed to see that you can't use it in the educational store. Expiration date is 10/14/07. guess there should be something good before then that I'd want to get from the regular online store....

It doesn't work at the apple edu store!?!

Yup, they don't work at Apple Store for Education Individuals/Education Institutions/Reseller/Canada/International or any online custom store sponsored by Apple. I didn't see that note at the bottom at first, so I was hoping it would work at the edu store.

just got mine today...$50 for the 2-gen ipod. it's dated "April 14, 2006"...i suppose they're mailing a bunch out every week, so most should get them in the next few months...hopefully.

Ouch, then it is as good as useless. Simply less gravy for Apple when they make a future sale (still gravy though!)

woo hoo, got mine this weekend! i was wanting to buy an apple BT wireless keyboard with it, but i got tired of waiting for the check that would never come and i already bought a BT keyboard. i was thinking maybe a DVI to s-video adapter for my mini, but thats only $20. and since it has to be spent on one order of only apple products, then i should find something for $30 or forget the s-video adapter and buy something else. any ideas?

I sent mine in probably 10 months ago and haven't heard anything. I was hoping they would force apple to repair or replace the covered iPods. Oh well maybe the $50 I might hopefully get can go to a new battery for my old 3G, since it has about 30 seconds of useful battery life left.
