Cmon! Enough already with the broken links!

ok,
to the people that are complaining about the 18 month battery life period, two things:
1. if a company tells you up front that their batteries only work for 500 recharges (or 18 months, and the Neistat brothers themselves would tell you this) then do the smart thing and DON'T BUY IT.
complaining expos-facto is as effective as blocking the sun with a finger. Cuz guess what? after you purchase it and it screws up, you're out of luck! you already agreed to their terms. And if you don't believe me, look at the tobacco industry...they warn you about health risks involved, so who's the dumbass? not them!

2. Ridicuously priced items cater (even if you refuse to believe this) to well to do people. what does that mean? Broke ass college students!? this item is NOT for you. Dirty Soho-ites? Not for you. Starving artists waiting-tables-while-you-get-discovered? soooo NOT for you.
However, if you choose not to believe this and have a dead iPod on your lap, then apple has a solution for you...follow this link

yeah, this product allows you to attach AA batteries to the iPod...and it's only $59!
I'm sure your pretentious asses can afford that, I mean, if you saved up for a couple of weeks for the iPod, I'm pretty sure that a couple of weeks more wouldn't be an issue.

yeah?
ok
