I knew what you meant before. The answer is no. They keep stock of old products for cases like this. I saw someone get a 60GB iPod as a replacement from Apple the other day, almost two years after it was discontinued.

That's amazing 2 years after. Well, I guess they do have to send you back what you sent them.

Comments like this amaze me.

I hope you realize that we all end up paying for your planned swap out scheme.

Why are you doing this?

Sadly, not once did I plan on swapping or say I was going to. I was merely asking a question that can obviously show up if someones iPod did get broken or damaged. If you read what I wrote I was asking if mine was broken or needed repairs what would they do.

Get off your high horse.

Reread your original comments.

To me, they sound much different than your comments above here.

If I misunderstood you, then sorry. Otherwise, it looks like back pedaling to me.

Then I should have reworded my original statement if I came across that way. Like I said, I merely wanted to know a question like I stated in my previous reply. Sorry.
 
only realistic features I'd like to see added to the 2nd gen ipod are speakers like with the iPhone so u can listen to music without the need of speaker dock or earphones.

none of this stupid talk of camera, bluetooth ...... if you want camera and bluetooth use your mobile or get an iPhone

I'd REALLY like to see hardware buttons and a built in speaker. A voice recorder would be handy too-the rest of the improvements I'd like would be software based (ie full PIM, Office, search, and cut and paste capability).
 
This is just plain wrong.

The 90 day money back guarantee is to allow someone to try a product, and at the end of 90 days, be able to get a refund if they no longer want the product. It is not to use it as you intend.

This concept strikes me as being very dishonest.

but thats what i want to do! try the product!! if i dont lilike it ill send it back if i do like it im going to keep it !! as the gen 1! if i dont like it im sending it back and buying the new gen.
 
Even if they allow you to do that, IMO that's really scamming the system. It's one thing to get it, realize it doesn't work for you, and send it back right away, but it's entirely different to buy it, keep it for months, and then send it back because there's a second generation out.

If they DO do a second generation model, I'd love to see some hardware buttons and an internal speaker. That would make it about perfect for me (and presumably the software will improve to continue getting more PDA like as we go along).

Well put. Completely agree.

One thing is for sure, the folks who plan to do this someday can nothing about others who do it someday to them when they own a business and take the loss. :)

Sometime payback can be a bitch. :D

A speaker would be very nice.

I do like how the Touch is proceeding to become more PDA like. I would like to see a model with a larger display.
