iPod | iPhoneMy Dad is forever hooking me up with vintage goodies and retired Apple products. My latest score comes in the form of a 1st gen 8GB iPhone and a 1st gen 4GB iPod mini.
They are both in near mint condition.

The backs show a little sign of use with some little scuffing.

I had to leave them plugged in for a bit to charge them up before I could power them on. Once they were good to go, I connected them to iTunes and gave them a fresh restore.
It’s funny how the “Welcome to your new xxx” screen shows the current iPod lineup. It would have been cool if they used the correct image, but I wonder how many people set up a “new” 6 year old iPod. I get it.

Another welcomed addition to my ever-growing collection of iDevices.
