i have a 15gig 3g ipod, so it is well out of the one year warranty that came with it, and i didn't buy applecare
over the past month its battery life has plummetted. I could charge it fully overnight just to only be able to use it for 1-2 hours the next day, and this is with lame vbr mp3s (-aps, lame 3.90.3 [and yes, i am reencoding my library with 3.97b1 -v2 --vbr-new, it just isn't on the ipod yet]).
could i take the ipod to the local apple store for a replacement? would they even replace such an old ipod with a new one? maybe they'd have some pre-The iPod models in the back, unsold..........
