Are these the ipods that had the screen problems?

If so, has the screen problem now been sorted?

What is the battery life like for the 2gb version?

thank you

    I bought one in October and the screen is cracked :mad:
    Silence is more musical than any song
  • What is the reason for this problem? Presumably they are no different to mobile phone screens?

    What are the manufacturers saying about it now as I had heard they finally admitted to a 'small batch' of them being defective.
  • I'll move this over to the techie board................

    Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere(please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [email="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]abuse@moneysavingexpert.com[/email].

    An early batch had screen problems, but these have been solved. It's a good idea - as with any iPod - to buy a protector to prevent scratches.

    Battery life is quoted at 14 hours. I'll have to wait until the missus unwraps hers to do empirical testing!

    The screen problems were caused by a manufacturing defect, which Apple have now sorted. :)

    The latest 2gb Nano (Dec 06) has a battery life of 24 hrs continuous play. The screen problems were with a previous generation.
    A bargain is something you don't need at a price you can't resist.
  • The latest Ipod Nano has excellent battery life!!
