WOOT.com is selling refurbished 30GB 5th gen ipods for $130 + $5 shipping, so if you've been contemplating jumping on the ipod bandwagon, check it out. This sale is for today only. What woot.com does is buy in bulk and sell one single item for 24 hours or until the stock runs out. So if you wanna grab one, you've got to do it today.

The refurbished 30GB ipods are selling for almost $200 in Apple's online store (when they have them) so I think this is a pretty good deal.

Also, just FYI, you should bookmark their site and check it every day... they have some insanely good deals sometimes.

Thanks for the heads up - I've actually been thinking about getting an iPod. Are these video iPods? Do they work OK with the F-series units?

That is a crazy good deal. I just sold a really scratched and used 30gb black video for $150 on ebay

They work flawlessly with the F-series. All audio and video functions are controllable from the radio's interface.

its a good deal except that apple is holding a press conference on september 9th to introduce new ipods...but their hasnt been any talk about normal ipods...just ipod touch and ipod nano...either way its still a good deal for 130 plus.

I just ordered 2, one for the g/f and my Dad.

Well yeah... but are these new ipods going to cost $130? Doubtful. Probably more like twice that much at least.
