Re: IPOD Buying questions
1) the mini is no longer sold new, the nano was made to replace it. but if you find a vendor that still has some minis (i'm sure many exist), then the main difference is the mini comes in 4 and 6 GB sizes and the nano 2 and 4 GB sizes. price should be almost the same
2)apple store is a good bet for the nano, cause they build em so they're never sold out. best buy i would bet is always sold out.
3)if you, your father, or your sister are in college, they get student discounts, which bring the price down 20-40 bucks.
if you are very price concious, check out store.apple.com and click on "special deals".
it's apple's refurbished section. these ipods are pretty much as good as new ones, but with marked down prices. keep in mind that there are no nanos because it is too new of a product, and there are no minis available, simply a service protection plan for the mini.
ps. my recommendation goes to the nano, simply because it has so many more features, and it looks damn cool.
