You may have heard about this, but now it is official. Apple starts its largest back-to-school promo today. That means if you are a student or educational staffer, you could buy a Mac and get a totally free iPod Touch!
Why?
"the promotion offers a $299 rebate that cancels out the price of an 8GB iPod touch, though the rebate can also be applied towards the purchase of the 16GB ($399) or 32GB ($499) model. Alternatively, participants can elect to receive a free 8GB iPod nano for the reduced rebate value of $199."
Who will be eligible?
"Faculty and staff of higher education institutions and students attending or accepted into a higher education institution are eligible. Any employee of a public or private K–12 institution or Qualified Homeschoolers in the United States or District of Columbia are also eligible."
How?
You must buy a Mac(MacBook, MacBook Pro, iMac, or Mac Pro) system and an iPod at the same time and on one receipt only. Plus:
"The products must be purchased from the Apple Online Store for Education Individuals, an Apple Retail Store, Apple Telesales, or an Apple Authorized Campus Store located in the 50 United States or the District of Columbia."
