I just walked inside and dropped my iPod on the floor (80 gig classic) and as soon as it hit the ground I heard a sound like a fuse being lit and it started pouring smoke out of all the holes so I picked it up and ran to my door to throw it outside and some time between when it hit the ground and when I picked it up it got really freaking hot and singed my fingertips.
My guess is the battery exploded or something.
My whole house smells like a firework now. Luckily, I was already planning on buying a 64 gig iPod Touch with grad money, but still, this has been simultaneously painful, awesome, and temporarily annoying.

If you learn to how you did that you'd have quite a party trick. |

darkbunny, I thought you were obsessed with Creative products, not Apple.

I got my iPod a few years back because after my third failed Creative product I was fed up, and Best Buy's warranties are impossible to get them to honor. Plus Creative didn't really have anything with enough space to store my library (I think at the time I had around 30 gb of music and Creative had all but given up on high capacity hdd players at that point.)
It's not that I like Apple, it's that there isn't really anyone who can compete with what Apple has.
EDIT: Which is to say, players that freaking explode when you drop them.

When I was in High School I bought a "Creative Zen Micro" because I didn't want to conform and buy an iPod. My brother, sister, and I all had the same model. At some point I also had some sort of larger Creative mp3 player as well. They all broke. *move ahead four years* My brother, sister, and I all have iPods. They all work. |

Yeah. That's pretty much how it is. I really didn't want to be like everyone else and have an iPod and now that I do/did have one, I wonder how I ever could've been such an idiot.
