1st gen nano recall!
(Click pic for link)Dear iPod nano owner,
Apple has determined that, in very rare cases, the battery in the iPod nano
(1st generation) may overheat and pose a safety risk. Affected iPod nanos were sold between September 2005 and December 2006.
This issue has been traced to a single battery supplier that produced batteries with a manufacturing defect. While the possibility of an incident is rare, the likelihood increases as the battery ages.
Apple recommends that you stop using your iPod nano (1st gen) and follow the process noted below to order a replacement unit, free of charge.
Note: This battery issue is specific to the iPod nano (1st gen) and does not affect any other iPod.
Replacement Process
You may order a replacement unit via the web. Click
here to begin.
Your iPod nano serial number will be checked to verify that it is eligible for this program. You will receive a replacement unit approximately 6 weeks after we receive your current iPod nano (1st gen).
If you have a personalized iPod nano, you will receive a non-personalized replacement. Make sure to use iTunes to back up any data on your current iPod nano before sending it in for a replacement unit.
Additional Information
Identifying an iPod nano (1st gen):
•
It has a black or white plastic front and a silver metal back – later iPod nano models have a metal front and back.If you need assistance with placing an order, please visit an
Apple Retail Store or an
Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) and bring your iPod nano with you for serial number validation.

7 things to do to get your day and your business running right
30 Apr1)Wake up early.
-Never underestimate the power of an early start. Also you are not losing time or wasting it.
2) Spend 20 minutes on meditation and self help/self learning.
-A day should not go by where you do not spend a minimum of 20 minutes to an hour working on bettering you, your global knowledge base, or your business acumen and people skills. This is key people. Meditation helps. Before bed and upon waking- I state it in that order because a cleared mind before bed gets you better results the next day
3) Make 5 new connections daily.
-Irregardless of your business or dreams you need people. Word of mouth is probably the strongest biz builder in the world. The internet is a close second, but that’s a different discussion. People will always sing your virtues if you do quality work. But you have to go out and meet these people first.
And lastly:
Always get their contact info.
4) Create new content daily.
I don’t care what your business is or your goal. Everyday give back, create value. Your content is a lifeline. And when you give you get. So, teach and set an example and the path you will blaze will be long and prosperous.
5) Set a budget.
-If you were opening a McDonald’s or a Levitz or a pawnshop you would need initial capital and money to bankroll monthly expenses until you not only turn a profit but, a continuous one. One you can live off of.
6) Put it on paper (and say aloud)
Write out your dreams.
Write out your hopes and plans.
Make it a hand written obligation to yourself. Write out what you want, when you want it by and a very, very specific date on this piece of paper.
7) Repeat the process.
‘Nuff said bub’.- to quote Wolverine.
BONUS STEP:
Make a TO DO List DAILY. And it must be hand written. Before bed or upon waking it must be written and reviewed. and should you pen this missive in the AM, read it and double check it before bed. You will find your mind clearer and your dreams. More peaceful.
