Not sure if this was posted here already, saw it on the k-chat board & thought I'd pop it up. Not sure if it's true... but me like my Archos better anyway!

"In response to this experience my brother Van and I made the short film "iPod's Dirty Secret." After we finished production of the film, Apple began offerring a battery replacement program for the ipod for a fee of $99 and an extended warranty for the ipod for $59.
We acknowledge Apple's new battery replacement policy. Our movie is a documentation of our experience."

Apple definitely didn't take very good care of the people that had this problem. That said, the vast majority of iPods sold never experienced this. So that guy is out of line. A decent number of people had this happen and thus there has been a bit of publicity. But overall, it's still a very small percentage of all the iPod owners out there. Like I said, that doesn't excuse Apple.
The new iPods that came out last month have an entirely new power system and I have yet to read one complaint about their batteries. I would have no problem buying one. Now if only I had firewire or USB 2..."I knew in an instant that the three dollars I had spent on wine would not go to waste."
