The Edu Store only lists new models.
The rebate is for old models? What is the supposed price of old models?
How do I know the part numbers of old/new iPods?
Do I get a 160 discount on a 149 2GB iPod nano ?
So effectively Apple gives me 11 if I accept an iPod (1st Gen with 2nd Gen price) ?
Is Apple paying me to get rid of old iPods?
How can I buy old models if they are not displayed in the Store ? By phone?

pip11 said:I can't speak for Spain, but the U.S. online store will show you the old models to buy if you pretend to buy a MacBook (or anything elgible for the rebate) and add it to your cart. The old 5G 30GB iPod shows up at $250 now, so I've gained something by waiting.
Hopefully the apple retail stores near me will have the old pod in stock though.

LastLine said:Stranger is that the NUS site now no longer seems to have an Apple link to get to the HE store - am I missing something?
can you explain how that would work??Bibulous said:I think Apple should end the whole Edu pricing system. Helps further the school kids image of the platform.
Which is why it's too bad that high school students aren't eligible for educational discounts on new Macs.plusdecowbell said:Student discounts for Apple is the less illicit analogy to giving cigarettes to kids. Hook 'em while they're young..![]()
clownfish said:WOW.. I stand corrected. It's just that I have been using this service for years and have bought 5 iPods, and at least 7 Macs this way and they have never asked. Also, all of my co-workers are also Federal employees and so far none have ever been asked to prove it. I bought a 24" iMac 5 days ago, and again, no verification. Perhaps with the loss of the EDU discount they are cracking down now?
