  • So far it's kind of blah, blah, blah... we've heard a lot of this before.

  • Just noticed a new article at Macrumors that is confirming that students will be able to get the iPod Touch 8GB for free with the purchase of a new MB/MBP/MBA. My question is, do you think they'll let you use the rebate towards the purchase of a…
