I am REALLY sick of my 5.5 G iPod Video. It's been sent in 3 times, each time coming back with a defect. I no longer want it.

I am THIS close to selling it and buying a different one. I decided against a Nano (I hate those even more), And have basically decided I want a 4G 20 GB. I got one in Christmas 2004, and I'm sorry I gave it up a year ago.

Of course, I love the ability to play video's and see photo's on my iPod, which is a feature I will be giving up.

I was wondering, is there any alternitive device out there that let's me watch video's and view photo's? It doesn't have to exactly sync with iTunes or iPhoto, but that would be nice.

What exactly are the problems your having with your iPod?
I opened it with a cracked LCD, sent it in, they didn't even bother to fix it, they just sent me a new one. Second time, loose headphone jack, wouldn't output sound. Sent it in, they "fixed it". Came back, but with a NASTY dent in the back of it. Sent it in, they gave me a new one. NOW, it doesn't play anything at all.

^^, two in a row is unliklely. I know if they sent me another one, it probably wouldn't have any problems, but I'm now just sick of Video iPods all together.
