I would say your correct...and I thought the battery was going to be the first to go. Although I've been quite rough with my iPod in the past (plenty of drops) so I kind of expected this anyways. I'm just glad I don't own a Power Book.
Got a tip for us?

Oh my, I didn't see that Panther note when I first read it. Now why did Jaguar tell me to update to something for Panther? That's curious.
Speaking of Panther, just played with it a bit at the CompUSA, too much traffic to Denver this evening, so I didn't visit the Apple Store. I'll bet that would have been more fun.
No but I have never updated my firmware beyond 1.2 I have a 20Gig 2nd Gen ipod ie no dock connector. Since all updates for 1.3 have been for 3rd gen ipods and I have 1 gig download limit I have never downloaded the updater till today. But its still says My firmware is 1.3 and no need for update.
Is it broken now? I'm using it!
The battery life on mine is sufficient. The screen backlight is white, not blue. The red backlight for the buttons is a nice touch. But if you don't use backlight, you won't ever have to see it.
A color screen on a music player is like a gun rack on a bicycle.
Stereo requires two mics. What's the freaking point? It's meant as a tape recorder for lectures, not as a portable recording studio!
Because a 10 GB hard drive is just as cheap to make, and you can backup your files on it too.
It's always been that. It's a portable hard drive, man.
This is a problem now?

any music suggestions? I like Tool, Rage Against the Machine, the Fugees, the Roots, Tribe, White Stripes, and just started listening to Jet. Used to love rap but now I've realized how truly horrible it is (it literally makes you stupider). So any musical suggestions along the lines of stuff above would be appreciated.
as proof it makes you dumber see above...stupider is not even a word
try incubus.....their science album is great...or any of the newer stuff would be good too, or even the old stuff...it's all great! The chili peppers too....Nirvana....Bob Marley, Marilyn Manson...definitely the Foo Fighters....try them all...there was this thing online that you can type in three bands you like and it'll suggest some...I'm basically that service by myself...if you like tool definitely try A Perfect Circle....APC's singer is Maynard from tool....also 3 doors down....Jimi Hendrix....maybe India.Arie because you like the Fugees....if you need more lemme know...
smashing ipods with a hammer is D U M B
give it to me next time you plan on doing that.
anyway I have major problems with the 2.1 upgrade for my 30 gig ipod.
any1 knows how to get rid of it?
(the ipod update i mean
)yeah... the problems with the 2.1 software are on apples support boards.
the ones i encountered were, screen flickering when using the backlight, and flakey battery meter (it never indicates a charge of more than 25%)
i did a restore to 2.0.1 with the original CD that came with it.
Re: Hello?!?!?
I updated my Ipod (1. Generation) with the software 1.3.1 (PC-Version) and now my ipod has a crash, doesnt work anymore, cannot be found by IPOD-Manager .
Says on the screen "Do not disconnect!" and it does not respond anymore, what can I do?

Seems like I did that to my 1stG 5GB when the update first came out. I thought I might get some of the 3G features but got skunked. I think I wiped it in Disk Tools or whatever and ran iPod 1.3(?) restore. Anyway it's been working fine since. Gave it to my GF and my 3G 15GB sees daily use at work and in the Jeep.
