These look sweet, but you better hope you never have a problem with it, because if you have to send it in for warranty work, you're going to get a standard black or white ipod back from Apple.
the site really doesn't tell you much about what they do to the surface. Do they protect the screen? What is the ipod covered with? Is only the front painted? Meh, no thanks.
A couple months? Do you think you will recharge your iPod over 10,000 times in two months? Or didn't you realize ALL rechargeable baterries have a limited number of charges, NOT just the iPod?Microsized scratches? Christ, do you want a friggin' museum piece or a portable music player that gets banged up over use anyway?Some people come up with ANY excuses to bash Apple. I think you really just spent the money and realized you need it back for something else...

hm, the iPod video is advertized on the front page, but they don't have it in the store

I'm sure apple has improved the battery since the one year death sentence of the 1st and 2nd gen iPods, so that really shouldn't be a concern.
