I went for a trip up to the North Cascades in Washington and it rained a shit load. During the course of the trip my Ipod got damp but definitely not wet. When I got back my Ipod's headphone jack was messed up. I know it's a minor problem because if I push against the jack of headphones it comes in clearly. Otherwise all I get is one channel.

It really burns me that I'm probably too poor to get it repaired since the warranty has long since expired. On the other hand, it's just a small problem so it couldn't cost that much, right? It beats asking for a new one for Christmas...

What say you?

Apple store will probably take good care of you. They do down here in Australia.

If by taking care of you you mean financially raping you, then yes they will.

You were probably still under warranty.
