iPod Batteries

Practically everyone I know with an iPod has had the same gripe: the frieken battery bunks out after a few months of usage. Some angry consumer got his voice heard by bringing a class action suit against the pompous computer company. You won't get a new iPod off the bat. What you will get is an extension to the original battery warranty:

"The majority of the plaintiffs in the suit bought the third generation of the iPod, and they will be offered a one-year extension on the battery warranty if they fill out claim forms, which are available at appleipodsettlement.com. If the iPod fails within that year they can request a new iPod or a replacement battery."
