    i got my mini when they first came out and its dead already, batery last 9 minutes and then i gotta recharge for another 4 song rush of adrenaline :P, ipods are a waste of money, get a cheap shuffle if anything.... imo other mps's that run off AA / AAA batteries are a much better investment.... for the long run anyway.

    well, I got a creative zen nan for that reason... 1 tripple A and up to 20 hours playback... plus I recharge the tripple As I'm not using, a 5$ pack of batteries lasts about 6 months that way.

    i don't think you can replace battery of a mini, just would have to follow "procdure," signing up for the one year warranty and hoping that when your mini does die that the warranty can cover it (which mine didn't...)

    apple's smart though, the ipod craze generates billions of dollars for them and no matter what the battery life or other types of malfunctions/problems each new design of the ipod has, the fact that ipods are considered "cool" in this society today won't deter millions from going out and shelling out 300+ dollars in hardware and accessories in order to have one.

    That is why I am taking care of my iPod carefully when it comes to battery life. I ain't paying no $60 for a repair. If I have to, then I will. :lol:

    You guys pay to get new batteries for your iPod and pay to get the batteries off? Thats a shame.

    Considering a couple towns away from me does it for free.

    It's so easy...

    I bought my ipod video from bestbuy, so as soon as my battery goes out, I just take it back to them and they give me a new one.
