They (Apple) don't replace batteries. They replace the whole iPod. You get a shiny new case and an iPod that meets specs. You could go to somebody like ipodresq and they will ch…

http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/ipod/batteryreplacement/ That should be much cheaper than apple.

i agree with macpilot. Apple's battery replacement program is really an ipod replacement program. A good deal esp. if your ipod is acting funny and you can't figure out what is w…

My Ipod Photo still gets around 7 hours and I bought it 18 months ago. Batteries will eventually wear down. I use my iPod everyday and I think I got my money's worth. I'll probabl…

If your iPod is under a year old, Apple should replace the battery for free.

also batteries are sensitive to heat, don't leave yours in hot vehicle. you can read "battery faqs"

rechargeable batteries have many charge/discharge cycles but also have to be replaced after some years because of age like a car battery

Yep. However my PowerBook 5300cs is an exception, the original battery still lasts for 3 hours!

What color MacBook do you like more - black or white? It seems like everyone is buying the black one so far even though it's more expensive. Interested to see what you guys think.…

apple knows what kinda style whores their customers are. paying +$150 just to get the black version? please..

I'm going for the $1299 white version. Paying 200$ for a different paint job is ridiculous. The white one appeals to me more anyway.

That black does look sexy, but i could see it getting smeared up all the time, and the extra charge for a color really puts me back what about all the colored iMacs and iBooks, no …

i like the white...i agree with star-fire, if the black was glossy, i'd like it more.

I prefer the matte for the black. Still -- bearing in mind the hard drive upgrade prices, effectively $150 for a color change . . . . . makes you wonder if there is any substantiv…

I totally disagree that a black bezel is harder on the eyes than white. Black fades into the background, while white... doesn't. I bought my HDTV partially because it had a black b…

1) White. I like the look better, and with the cheaper price it's a no-brainer. 2) Where's the poll?

White. Frankly, it looks to me like more attention was given to designing the Macbook as a white notebook, and then they decided to paint it black as an afterthought. Very much…

In one of the other bajillion threads about these things, someone mentioned that he might like the black so much because it reminds him of his Pismo. If I get a MacBook (I really d…

I've always disliked the look of the Pismo, but that's just me. I guess that's probably why I don't like the BlacBook that much either.

I'm actually happy that the black MacBook is a matte finish over a glossy one. With that said, I think it's dissapointing that they don't give you more computer for that extra $200…

Am I the only one, or does the BlackBook photo above bear some resemblance to the PB G3 - just ever so slightly?

I would have gotten the black MacBook if it had been available for $1033 which was what I paid for mine.

i bought a white macbook. i don't like the matte black finish and i can't justify paying $200 for a different color.
