QUOTE(sani_othman @ Feb 10 2006, 02:44 AM) Really, if you have nothing of value to post, then please, keep your spam to yourself. Apple has a programme to replace iPods that no longer hold a charge (even when out of the warranty period. Below is a cut-and-paste from the Apple support website. The programme is available in Malaysia although I'm not sure how much it would cost here. In the US it's USD59. Not cheap but better than having to buy another iPod I guess.... iPod Out-of-warranty Battery Replacement Program Frequently Asked Questions What is the iPod Battery Replacement Program? If your iPod requires service only because the battery's ability to hold an electrical charge has diminished, Apple will replace your iPod for a service fee of $59, plus $6.95 shipping. Be sure to follow all of the battery troubleshooting steps before submitting your iPod for battery replacement. How much does it cost to participate in the program? The program costs $59, plus $6.95 shipping. The total program cost is $65.95 per unit. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax. Replacement iPods may be new, used or refurbished. Service may not be available if your iPod has been damaged due to accident or abuse. Please review Apple's Repair Terms and Conditions for further details. How do I send in my iPod for battery replacement service? Easy. Just complete our iPod service request form. Please review the service terms and conditions. Then, follow the on-screen instructions to participate in the program. Will the data on my iPod be preserved? No, your songs and files will not be transferred to your replacement iPod. Please backup important files, and remove all data from your iPod before sending it to Apple. Will my iPod personalization be preserved? If your original iPod was personalized by Apple, your replacement iPod will be automatically personalized with same text. If your original iPod was custom laser engraved by another company, your replacement iPod will not be personalized. How long will it take to receive my replacement iPod? If your iPod is not personalized, your service will take approximately one week from the date we receive your iPod for service to the date you receive your replacement iPod. If your iPod is personalized, your service will take approximately two to three weeks from the date we receive your iPod for service to the date you receive your replacement iPod. |

gotta be honest....the last time i asked if i could change batteries, the guy said it'll cost a few hundred. why is it so expensive? might as well just buy a new one. besides if u sent in for battery replacement, its not guaranteed u'll get your original back. correct me if i'm wrong
