Refurb Ipod from Apple.com?
I want to get an Ipod for my wife and an apple refurb is the cheapest anywhere, but i'm just wondering if anyone has had any experience with getting a refurb from them. Any problems or suggestions? Thanks

I purchased a refurb recently, saved me about 60$ from a new one after tax. Came with everything needed including a nice black sleeve. The warranty seemed to be about the same for a refurb as a new one so that led me to pull the trigger. Battery life is good, but it was the regular 5G not the latest enhanced. And that new ipod may or may not be just around the corner prices could possibly drop further.

My gfriend has a 6gb Nano and I'm only able to fit about 725 songs on it...there are different bit rates from 128 to 192 and they're normal 3:30 min. avg. songs..hope that helps.

Well i asked my wife roughly how many songs she wants the thing to hold and she said about 100. So i'm thinking either the 1 or 4 gb ones. Do any of the Ipods take pictures? I can see that they hold them but i don't think any of them take pictures.
Thanks for all info.
