Ouch, all that care and molly coddling and I have dropped my iPod 4 feet in the air straight onto its face, cracking it on the hard concrete. One nasty line in the expensive glass screen, I felt horrified.

So I went to the Apple Store to see how much repair would cost, I knew the glass screen could be replaced manually, with places like eBay selling them for $160 with instructions to replace it yourself. I could only imagine what Apple would charge me ...

The genius bar at the store were really helpful, I found out that a cracked screen by accident is covered under warranty! 5 minutes later I had a brand new iPod Touch with the new £13 upgrade, all for free, with my warranty starting over again!

Apple Support is the best experience I have ever had, it doesn't have lots of limitations that effect the users, nor does it care about squeezing money from you. At the end of the day I got a brand new iPod where in other circumstances I would not even receive a penny as it was my own fault. I just wish I had time to take pictures ...

Nice, so you got the new 1.1.3 Touch with the iPhone apps?
But you cant jailbreak 1.1.3 as of yet

1.1.3 is jailbroken, but they won't release it until the new SDK is out .

I've dropped mine about 5 feet onto concrete and there's only two tiny tiny little bumps on two corners \o/

No, if the iPod Touch was purchased after the 17th of Jan i think, you get all the extra apps free on 1.1.3.
