    These are all good questions.

    These type of electronics are only made to last up to 2 years.

    This is one of those lessons in planned obsolescence by the manufacturer.

    They survive only on the consumers reliance of their products.

    More than likely, everything you upload to you ipod, will be unretrievable, once your unit takes the plunge as well.

    Admittedly, they are fun and useful gadgets, but, it is a rather expensive product for such a short amount of valued useage.

    It's sad when an old Philco radio made in the 1930's is still working today and an electronic device today only gets a up to two years or better of lifespan. Food for thought.

    3b. If you buy it for games like me I wouldn't get so early because there's no confirmed way to jailbreak OS 4.0.2 or newer
