    Nope. The iPod is a mail-in rebate for the iPod, or toward another iPod. N othing else, sorry.

    SamL2700 If you buy the macbook, you can get a free ipod nano 2 gb and a free 100$ printer, just click on promos in the store tab and it will be their, its a pretty good deal! I am getting a iPod 30 GB for 90$ basically cus of the student discount then - the 179.99 for the rebate!

    You do have a choice in which ipod you get, but you they rebate you the price of a 2 gig nano. So you could get an ipod video and get a rebate for ~50% of the price.

    varco that is what I am doing, but it's not 50% price, the 30 GB video would cost you 90 bucks, because of the student discount the 30 GB is 269.99 then - the 179.99 rebate for the ipod it comes out to 90 bucks :D really great deal.
    GL ! Take advantage of these great offers!
