revbuddylove · 11-26-2003, 12:48 PM

Do a search for ipod battery on google, you can buy a third party replacement battery with install instructions for like $50.

I must say, I've got a new Ipod, have had it for about 6 months, and the battery probably holds a charge for 1 hour less :-/

makefuckingmoney · 11-26-2003, 01:28 PM

Dell just came out with a competitor for it..

maxsweet · 11-26-2003, 01:36 PM

Yeah the battery thing really sucks but look at it this way.

I listen to my ipod 8 hours a day (1 battery charge). In a year that's 2920 hours of use.

Compare buying AA batteries. You'll get 10 hours of play out of one pack.
That's 292 packs of batteries you'll need to buy to get the same play time out of an alternative player.

292 x $7 = $2044.00 for batteries alone!

Shoplifter · 11-26-2003, 01:40 PM

You can get replacement batteries here and from many other places including Apple:

The guys who did the video are completely misinformed.

How many macs do you have?

And how much would it be if I would have bought rechargeable batteries (like the one in the ipod).
