The Pod Drop: iPod Repair Review

**MIG-31** · Nov 3, 2008, 05:03 PM

Like most things Apple, iPods don't come cheap, and there are many things that can go wrong. Has the battery stopped holding a charge? Maybe you dropped your iPod and cracked the LCD screen or killed the hard drive (depending on the model you own). Even the click wheel can give up the ghost. Repairs through Apple can run up to $260, which might even be more than you paid for the media player to begin with! If you're thinking there has got to be a better way to service and repair iPods, you're absolutely correct. In fact, there are several companies out there who specialize in reviving iPods, and we decided to look into one of them. Our candidate? The Pod Drop.
