Greed (for lack of a more favorable word) is getting the better of me, and i'm thinking of joining one of those free iPod things. How did you know you got enough people to get one, and roughly how long did it take for you to get yours?

i was looking through the menu and it says the capacity is only 18.5 GB .. whats the deal?

That's the way HDD manufacturers label them (20GB) and how it looks to Windows when it is formatted. HDD makers say 1GB = 1,000MB, Windows says 1GB = 1,024MB.

If you're going to sign up for one, use my link:

Know that you'll need a credit card or checking account. You can cancel the offer after everything goes through. Blockbuster is supposedly the easiest. PM me if you decide to use do it, and are 100% sure you'll complete an offer.
 
quadriplegicjon, after everything went through.. how long did it take for them to ship it/how long did it take to come to you?

I posted my referral link at my website and got 70 or so people to sign up under me in a week or so. It took about 3 weeks for them to get my info tallied and off to the vendor, another 3 weeks for the vendor to ship and 1 day for it to get to my house. :)

can we start this conga thing again?
i think there's a thread for it a few pages back. Not as populated as previous threads though.

Dammit, i really don't even want an iPod, and getting a DS in a few weeks should be enough. Curse my fetish for portable electronics. i think i'll do it.

For new iPod users, I'd get some sort of protective case immediately. As many iPod users can attest to, your iPod will look like it's been molested by squirrels after only a few days use.

The next iPod needs to be scratch resistant!

But is there a practical reason to get one?

I have just spent over $100 on accessories for my new ipod. Shit. This stuff is expensive. $40 for an I-trip and another $40 for a case. That's how they get you.

Mine is generally un-fucked up. I just keep it in my jeans pocket, and no harm comes to it. Where do you guys store your iPods?

The reason why its showing up as 18.5gb is because 20gigabytes(1,000,000,000) is equal to 18.5gibibytes(2^30, what windows calls gb but should be noted as GiB).
