Alpha Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Dan Bell on 01 July 2004 - 01:50Dell is offering customers 100 dollars credit towards a US$ 199 15 gigabyte Dell digital Jukebox, the catch is you have to turn in your iPod for 'recycling'. Did I mention it's a mail-in rebate offer? Hurry the offer is limited. A spokesman for Apple was contacted by Reuters but had no comment. Apple's iPod and iPod mini players, which range in cost from $ 249 to $ 499 depending on their capacity, have more than 50 percent of the market for digital music players, and even more when measured by revenue, Apple has said. Apple's 15-gigabyte iPod costs $ 299 and weighs 5.6 ounces and Dell's player weighs 7.61 ounces, according to the companies' Web sites.I heard something that you can't change the battery for iPod's. Is this true? I know many people now are going with the CreatiVe brand since you can change the battery with theirs. I'm not sure if I would do the above unless my iPod was really defected.

solidius23 Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 i cant believe ipods are remaining that expensive and still that popular with the other almost equally priced opposition, hard disk mp3 players should be dirt cheap by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the way free trade goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I would say their products look so good compared to other computer stuff that they may look strange to some people But indeed, their prices are a problem.
