Title: A very unreliable piece of electronics
Review: Sure, everybody loves these, myself included. But do your own research ... these are incredibly fragile, flaky devices. My daughter is on her second one in a couple of years. Her first model, a 4GB lime-green model, lasted one year and a half. Two months ago, she bought a 20GB model, and after two months, it is fried, dead, kaput. But talk about Teflon products! Nothing seems to be able to stop the momentum of the iPod.My advice: you better buy the extended warranty. The iPod is warranteed for one year, but, as I understand it, if it breaks after 6 months, you have to pay Apple a $29.95 shipping and handling fee to get it fixed.So, in effect, you've bought an extended service warranty by default it it breaks after 6 months, which seems rather fraudulent to me, since it is supposed to be under warranty for a full year. Very dishonest on Apple's part."Caveat Emptor" ... the words never rang truer.
