Newegg selling "recertified" iPods
When did Newegg start selling "recertified" iPods? At decent (but not great) prices, too. 30GB 5G iPod videos (both black and white models) are just two hundred bucks. At the Apple Store, to contrast, certified refurbished 30GB 5G iPod videos sell for $180, saving you a sawtoothsawbuck and including shipping, 90 days support and a one-year limited warranty.
According to the site, "Factory Serviced and Recertified products are items which have been returned to an authorized factory repair facility for testing, inspection, and repair, or which have been repaired by certified technicians. All factory service products carry the applicable manufacturer's warranty and Newegg's 15-day return policy."
I'm not sure I totally grok the difference between certified refurbished and recertification, but I suspect they're more or less the same thing.

this is irrelevant to the post but I had a question and wasn't sure how to ask a random question to the crew. I've met Scott McNulty a few times but didn't want to write to his personal email. I've been using Quicksilver for a few months and slowly....very slowly learning it's many uses. I've tried to log onto their forum page but it seems to be down. I was wondering if anyone else was having this problem.

There are better deals direct from Apple in the refurb store. Confusingly a Black 2Gb model must be a 1G Nano and yet the picture is of an 8Gb 2G Nano.
Nice coloured Apple logos too!

I bet that the old logo would look awesome on the back of the black nano!
