Getting a Vpod for free!

Well not free but 50 bucks off, as you may know if you have read my nightmare customer support challenges with apple. That i received one of the defective ones and when i called them they had told me it was due to abuse and i was just going to have to deal with it. But i just got off the phone for the final time and he said that what iwas going through was absolutely ridiculous and he sent me the long awaited callertags (Been waiting for 2 weeks) instantly through e-mail. And i also slipped it to him that i just wanted the money back so i can get the new one when its shipped to stores and he said hell be able to send me that one instead. Now he didnt mention anything about the extra 50 bucks for it but neither did i so maybe i can get away with it if not ill use my educational discount and bring it down to 269.

Until Apple calls it a vPod, it's still just an iPod.

I wouldn't be surprised if your credit card statement has been adjusted to reflect the full cost of the new iPod. You might want to check before you assume.

After all, when you assume, you make an ### out of U and . . . well, pretty much just U. *winks*

I don't get it, that's not the iPods new name... And I'd thank you if you wouldn't call us nerds. More like, people in the know. :D

You are surely right. My little joke seems to have struck a nerve with the original poster, I guess the same nerve that the use of vPod struck with me... Not as bad as the name that the iPod Photo got stuck with for a short while... But I can't remember what that was now... Wait now I remember: iPop

Gosh that grated on my nerves, but I suppose to each there own...

I'm anxiously awaiting indepth reviews by the testers here and other users before I whip out my credit card. My 3G is ready to be upgraded... But I don't know if now is the time...

# 15 Re: Getting a Vpod for free!
theoutsidr, you really need to grow up, if posting gibberish is what you do for fun :)

Its called the iPod 5G, or video iPod... although the official name is just, iPod.

# 16 Re: Getting a Vpod for free!
My last post was referring to yes it grates on my nerves and now I was going to annoy it, But any more gibberish may have to be removed, not because I hate the term vPod, but to keep the boards clean.

Call it what you want. VB made the ignore function for a reason.

Enjoy.

# 18 Re: Getting a Vpod for free!
Then it should be green, right d-bear?

or neon yellow, for those who don't drink enough water. personally, i'd go green.

# 20 Re: Getting a Vpod for free!
Although I am annoyed by theoutsidr's etiquette. I do like the term vPod and have been using it myself and will continue to use it.

Who cares what apple calls it. For example: it is perfectly acceptaple to call a Harley motorcycle a 'Hog'. No one jumps up and says, "actually the proper name is 'harley davidson'"
thundergroove at 2007-11-15 13:05:53 >
# 21 Re: Getting a Vpod for free!
The term in question has been 'fixed'. End of discussion.
MikeM at 2007-11-15 13:06:48 >
# 22 Re: Getting a Vpod for free!
But most people like the term "hog" in reference to that motorcycle...

Whatever becomes popular will I suppose, but I'll be dragged kicking and screaming ;)

I find it funny how some names develop, I really do, but to each their own.

# 24 Re: Getting a Vpod for free!
I jus dont like the nerds trying to correct me and tell me im wrong... they act like ipod is a scientific term... Vpod :P

# 25 Re: Getting a Vpod for free!
Ah... This person is on our Ignore list. You can keep posting but I won't see about what. No need for myself to be bated further, outsider

Bliss ;)

If you continue with this attitude then your username will become very apt indeed. Unfortunately it isn't practical to add you to my ignore list, but I have another list you can be added to if you wish...
