Dell wants your old iPod and is willing to pay to get it.

The Round Rock, Texas, PC maker on Wednesday unveiled an offer that grants music player customers a $100 rebate on a 15GB Digital Jukebox when they send it an Apple Computer iPod music player to be recycled.

iPod Minis in short supply

The rebate, available only on the 15GB Dell Digital Jukebox, is designed to woo would-be repeat iPod buyers and also to raise the profile of the Dell DJ versus the iPod. Apple's iPod, now in its third year, is the leading portable music player.

Failure.

man. I should go steal an iPod and get a hundred bucks for it. I love ploys like this. they don't ever think things through. I guess the feel that people will just change to their thing because it's a little cheaper, and is kinda the same (rip off)

so come to my forums http://jimmyjames.sytes.net/forum/

and send me your iPod.

I won't give you $100 for it
Go the fuck ~
