Received the box on 12/6 and sent it straight back with the ipod inside.
It was delivered in 1-2 days to Apple.

Per the Apple Repair Website the status is still "Empty box shipped "
Thanks for the update. Still haven't received my box.

Got mine today.

No box. Its a small yellow padded envelope that's mailed from "AI". They send you a small bag for the nano and a return shipping label which you place on top of the yellow envelope for UPS.

On ebay they argoing for $40+  >:(

Now that we see them replacing with 6G 8gb, is $40 a bad price for that?

Nice! I just spoke with them on Monday and the Rep told me that they'll just replace it with the same model. Let's wait and see...

Just checked the status at the apple website. It s at the last step for replacement - called "Return - Product replacement pending". Will keep u posted...

Yeah, Apple has apparently run out of boxes and is now sending out padded envelopes instead. A friend just got that too...

Edit: Just did a BIN and got one for $58. I messaged them for the SN and filed it with Apple to make sure it qualified first! :)

Once Apples receives the Ipod (mine was delivered today), whats the turn-around time until they ship out the replacement?

Anyone get theirs yet?

Just received mine! they indeed sent out a 6th generation ipod nano. Looks great btw! (I received it in grey and without any headphones or cables... just the ipod itself). It took exactly 2 weeks

I dont think it matters, i think the replacement program is all based on the ipod's serial number and they are all assembled in china

I know I'm eligible, I already mailed it back to them. I'm just hoping they don't send me back a 1st gen.
