My iPod nano is dying…
It started as a line of missing pixels on my iPod nano a few weeks ago and then completely self-destructed into this:
The unit still works and plays music. It’s just that the screen is completely bonked. I take pretty good care of my electronics so I’m wondering how this happened. I always have my iPod nano in a case of some sort so I’m puzzled.
Anyways, I’m sending it in for repairs since it’s still under warranty. Of course, the issue now is that since it’s been more than 120 days since the purchased date, I have to pay shipping/handling fees of $29.95 plus tax. If I had purchased the $59 Extended AppleCare warranty, this fee would have been waived. In hindsight, I probably should have just bought that first since it would extend the warranty to 2 years. Oh well, lesson learned…more updates on the whole process.
