Apple announces Back to School deal – Buy a Mac, Get Free iPod Touch
Apple today announced the start of its annual Back to School promotion whereby students and educators can receive a free 8GB iPod touch or less expensive iPod model when purchasing a qualifying Mac computer. To be eligible for the promotion, an educator or student must purchase a new MacBook, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, iMac, or Mac Pro at the educational price and purchase an iPod at the same time. Students can then mail in their proof of purchase from their Mac to Apple to receive a rebate for the value of the iPod, up to $229. Additional qualifying iPod models include the third-generation 4GB iPod shuffle, fourth-generation 8GB and 16GB iPod nanos, 120GB iPod classic, or more expensive iPod touches; the iPod classic’s rebate is $20 short of its full price, and the rebates for more expensive iPod touches are capped at $229.
With iPod touch, you can email your classmates, download hundreds of educational apps, and enjoy thousands of podcasts, lectures, and videos from iTunes U. Of course, you can also play games, surf the web, watch movies, and get directions to the pizza place.
The Back to School promotion is available in the U.S. and Canada from May 27, 2009 through September 8, 2009.
