the nano is the minis replacement...they and the U2 ipod ahve been discontinued as far as i know....why not just get her a nano ...???...its alot smaller than the mini anyway
 
They're discontinued... you might still be able to find one from another retailer (Best Buy, CompUSA, etc.), or there are some used ones available in the Marketplace forum here.
 
yea she hates the nano, its way too small and not pink. dont ask haha. i cant convince her, ive tried.

its weird cause 2 weeks ago i could have gotten one from the apple store. that sucks. i guess thats what i get for procrastinating.
 
any way i can get the free engraving that apple offers by getting one through the refurbished store?

are anything wrong with these ipods?

It's really not too surprising that Apple has stopped selling a product that they discontinued. You will probably be able to find them in the refurb store though. I know that my campus bookstore has plenty still in stock (alongside the nano), so check around at some local stores.
 
If you can't get a refurbished iPod from Apple engraved, there are plenty of aftermarket places that do it. There's companies that engrave all Apple products like PowerBook libs and such. Read that in the newest MacWorld.

As for the quality of refurb.: most of the time, you can't even tell it's been used.

Amazon.com still has some new iPod minis in stock in most colors and in 4 and 6GB. I would try there.

I would also like to purchase a mini. Thanks for the Amazon tip.

she would get a heavier bigger ipod, without a color screen just because she wants it in pink?

girls :rolleyes:
