did you get that “sad ipod” logo on your screen when it died? Thats what happened to me when mine died and it made me all the sadder.
January 11th, 2007 at 2:44 pm
ha! no, it died without any fanfare & it’s too old to get replaced. I think maybe the sad face expires when the warentee does, like a double fuck you.

My ipod died and I was too cheap to replace it, so I went to http://www.ipodjuice.com and ordered a battery replacement kit for 30 bucks. It totally worked - it’s alive and kicking now. Something to think about…

Oh no!!!!!
Wouldn’t it have been so much better if it had said “Battery Dead 4-EVA” like that movie with Marky Mark where there was some jerkin on the rollercoaster??? Yeah, that would be much better.
Damn you Steve Jobs, you titanic whore!!

January 11th, 2007 at 4:37 pm

January 11th, 2007 at 9:08 pm
because they suck.
January 11th, 2007 at 9:44 pm
great now you have a useless i-pod AND vagina, loser.

Wait, iPods actually have a “ha ha, I’m dead, go buy another one, sucker!” screen? That’s like an insurance company hiring a guy to go smash into people who’s policies just expired.

it’s a sad fact, the average battery life of an iPod is 500 charges, that’s about a year and a half, after that, you gotta change the battery, or puy a new iPod

a new ipod? I’d have to give a lot of back alley handjobs to save up the cash money for that, so, no new ipod for me. maybe a walkman from the thrift store if I’m lucky, but I think I threw away all my tapes in 1997

Hey Julia.
Just wanted to say I love your webcomic. I found it the other day and sat there and read each one from day 1.
Good work.

Looks doable to me. I say go for it. It’s gotta be better than a crappy old walkman.
mebby you can find some nice geek boy to help you with it :-p

It’s not the end! You can have these guys replace it for you: http://www.newertech.com/ipodinstall.php

Almost had to do that over the summer… the Apple tech support decided not to help me, so I spent a couple afternoons figuring out the codes the iPods use… “if I hold “menu” and “play” when the iPod boots up, maybe that will help?”
Then I got back to college and three sets of earphones broke within a month, and gave up. Someone just doesn’t want me to have an iPod.

I have a zen touch. It’s dropped from different heights over the last few years but it still works perfectly.
And funeral for a friend is pretty nice, especially their earlier stuff.

the same thing happened to me a few weeks ago… i have some old-ass ipod too. last night, after much mourning, it came back to life. apple has this DIY section that told me that by pressing the menu button and the white clicker button at the same time, it resets. i thought the battery had died forever but somehow it decided to pull a jesus on easter.

The battery pack replacements totally work. I paid 25 bucks for mine ages ago, and it is still working perfectly. No way would I spend hundreds for a new one…
January 12th, 2007 at 10:39 pm
ipods suck you can have mine.
not really.

Apple care warranty on everything… I am on my 3rd ipod now. They just keep replacing it for free as long as you get the apple care. I know someone who’s on their 8th in the same situation. The 3rd 4th and 5th gen ones are really crappy (if you couldn’t tell already).

The reason everything sounded amplified is because you were probably using those earbuds- Those things are actually not very good for your ears at all, they block the earwax from getting out of your ear, and the wax cakes onto the ear canals and eardrums, and dries… Pretty nasty, and downright painful to rectify.
Also, these same earwax blockages worsen Tinnitus (the ringing a person may sometimes get in their ears from nothing)… The sound has no escape under that wax…
So, for now, your ears were probably like “WTF SOUND!!!” After being under those ‘buds…

Are you sure it’s dead? My Ipod Nano some times acts like it’s dead when it’s really not… Like it wont charge and the screen will go black and no matter what I do it wont turn on. So I start pressing the middle button than the menu button and jiggle the on off switch over and over and over again till finally it comes back to life! Yeah I hate Ipods.

I felt the same
