- frem001, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2"Couldn't agree more with Norgus' comment. Put simply, apple fans will buy anything, and ipod fans seem to be the same, I mean, what kind of ***** market must it be for people to be able to sell "hoodies" for your portable MP3 player. I steer well clear from ipods and all the unnecessary hype, and advise anyone else to. I've seen to many ipods turn into ***** heaps because of the crappy workmanship or shoddy components to even consider buying one, plus they are ugly too!"
yeah they use the same components as any other mp3 player. My advice stick to vinyl... - tmibiker2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0awsome i have a nano it is good
- snoopdawg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+051. be a trendy *****.
- geeoye, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This is way too old guys

- combatcupcake, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This is the stupidest list I have ever seen. Anyone who actually does any of this ***** is an idiot. Course they are probably the same people using the white buds already... so they are idiots by default.
- brettmosleymaui, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Check out www.buymybrokenipod.com, they pay really well, have web based price quotes and are honest. They will buy any broken, damaged or used ipod in any condition (really I have gotten good prices for sad face ipods, cracked LCD, even water damaged ipods). That could be option 51.
- nshop2, on 02/23/2009, -0/+0Nice review... I liked it.

- compu73rg33k, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1This is so retarded...
51. Put music on it.
52. Listen to the music. - Cippy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Hmm...
I think I'm cool enough to listen to an Altoids container. - ironmask, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Dupe x 5
Use the search..... - JetwingX, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1#17 - Get Mugged
can someone explain how that would be fun? - SoulVirus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Pretty funny, 50, well i guess.
- fishgeekva, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0yea, most of them were pretty obvious, I thought #18 was cool.
- nikosapi, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0That's pretty old....
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Yeah.. this is pretty old... but its a good article
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Roll on it with a garbage truck.
- rikersbeard, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Nice... i prefer listening to my music and podcasts and ignore the rest of the world..if i can :)
- Mexrocker, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0kinda old man...
and some of these are pretty lame...
but some are interesting... - generalbob, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0this is really old
- twygallypuff, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0im gonna try #20 on the "ooooooollllllllddddddd" crowd
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2No digg, Apple hit the masses with this device and it seems to me that a lot of geeks, instead of being geeky (and finding one of the many superiour players available) just go along with the general ipod flow.
Apple don't seem too supportive of community hacks and havn't added any open formats to their players in like 10 generations.
Compared to good players around (like iaudio) the ipods look on par to a bit worse style wise and value for money wise are kicked the ***** out of.
Support something really geeky, don't waste time adding features to a player that is generally inferior (and the makers of do not support adding of features to in general) and costs more and instead buy with a little knowledge and promote players that do a good job.
Not trying to flame, but I am dead sick of inferior Ipod crap being pushed on all the news sites, and hyped by the unintelligent masses. - Nephets, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0It's not saying the getting mugged is fun, it's saying using the excuse of being mugged as being fun, so you can get actually GOOD headphones instead of those little earbuds.
- illu45, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0There are some interesting things there, but most of them are kinda stupid... There's about 10-15 interesting things there, IMO.
- Bonobo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0didnt know murdering someone with an ipod was fun..maybe i should give it a try! #20
- rabidchipmnk, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I would think that number 1 would be "listen to music".
- twygallypuff, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1im gonna say how "old" this is because i spend my entire useless ***** life on teh interweb reading articles and i want everyone to know for sure that i read this a long time ago! thats how 1337 i am...
- makgyver, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Never thought of using it for phone phreaking but I guess it's much easier than trying to find a 6.5536 MHz crystal...
- teh_toaster, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0seems lame, especially since number 37 doesn't work for crap anymore, especially in any major city
- AngryGoldfish, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Lol some of those are pretty funny. like the ipod hoodie.
- Avogadro65, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Half of those fall under the category "buy an overpriced accessory."
- succubuskiller, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0#1 return it.
- Dustin3737, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0For everyone thats wondering why "listen to music isnt on there" look at the title, and the description...."Here are a few dozen things you can do with your iPod besides listen to music."
- Abyss_908, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Making a raid array of Ipods is cool. Saw that on Wiki before. A lot of them are like wierd PDA hybird features like contacts and junk. Linux aps and movies are also great things to do.
- Shadowsnake, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Hit it with a large elephant....Of fire....
- terrya64, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Lame. Ipods are about geeky as those phones people now have hanging on their ears.
- Mongoose, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I totally needed this guide to know how to do these things.
- Amplix, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Gee #17 sure sounds fun :(
Oh, and terrya64, those are bluetooth headsets, not phones - jnorris441, on 10/12/2007, -1/+051. Shove it up your pretentious ass
- tastypastry, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0No digg, iPods suck, and more than half the things they list are stupid. And theres not even 50. Lame.
- alexp, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0This has been on here before. No Digg.
- crispo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0turn it into a sex toy: http://www.ibuzz.co.uk/
- rusty_g, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0yeah old news
- chill392, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I do wish I had an iPod...
- porplem, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Dupe, Dupe, Dupe. This story was submitted 3 times before, and it NOW it gets picked up?

- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1# 51: Sell it and get something that's less expensive, more functional, and not nearly as trendy.
- NoOneButMe, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0Oh, and Seems there's a Sub-Digg Effect, http://www.ipodwizard.net/cmps_index.php has the message "The server is too busy at the moment. Please try again later." when you try to go there. It's linked in #15 ( Modify the look and feel of the iPod OS )
