iPod repair question
Recently the headphone jack on my iPod stopped working, and the warranty has expired. Has anyone here had any experiences with online vendors to repair iPods, and is there a company that anyone would recommend? I'm not to keen on doing it myself - rather pay a little more and have someone experienced (presumably) do it.

RE: iPod repair question
How old is the Ipod? If it is more than a year or two old you are probably better off buying a new one.

It's a little over two years old, but Apple isn't getting $300 of my cash every couple of years because the headphone jack is worn out. I'd just as soon try something else out.

I cant see them charging much less than 150 bucks to fix it, I just cant see how it would be worth it.

RE: iPod repair question
Every repair I've heard of on an I-Pod that's out of warranty has been approximately the same price as purchasing a new I-Pod.
