What’s the oldest working iPod?

By

iPod battery lengthDoes anyone actually own a first generation iPod that still works? I’m curious, as the average life of iPods these days seems to be no more than a year or two. Please comment on this because it would be quite interesting to find out just how long they can last.

I’ve got a 3rd gen and it still works to this very day! Unfortunately, the battery is just about dying every time I play an album, but it still works. My friend had a mini and that gave up the ghost just after a year of ownership [oh how she wished she got that extended warranty]

So have a think about when you got your iPod: you might be the lucky owner of the oldest working iPod.
