Heh...make it a 3G iPhone and I'll do it. I hate the new square Nano's, personally (not that I particularly like iPods in general.) I preferred the older slim skinny model instead.

Anyone know how long the approval process for discover card is? I know shipping is 6-10 weeks after activation, but I was wondering how long activation takes...

Besides, I don't think discover card will approve me, but even if they would I would rather have the old nano - it didn't fall out of my pocket when I go to the gym like the new one did (hanging upside or on an incline bench, I mean). I sold my newer nano to a friend, and bought a sansa that works ok.

Sorry for the ot ramble...

I thought the older (v2?) model was darn near perfect, shape-wise.

Just to sum up some FAQ's for this deal:

1) No annual fee on Discover Card
2) Just go thru link to apply for the card, get the card and activate it over the telephone like any new credit card you get, make 1-purchase (any amount) at a store. You will automatically get your NANO, you need to nothing else.
3) Some people will be approved automatically, some people will get the we need more info and our application is being reviewed.
4) Most people will hear about their application status in a few weeks. If you are approved automatically, you will get your card quicker.
5) Once you make a purchase, some people have received their promo in a few weeks, other longer.
6) If already have a Discover Card and have had it for years, you will still probably qualify and you will get a letter from Discover later on that they are cancelling your old account.
7) If you have gotten in on one of the other promos, you more than likely will not qualify, even though it says you can apply every 30-days.
8) Anyone want to trade a Canon 580 camera NIB for their NANO?

This promo is legit, and the prizes do come.

Just got turned down by discover. I signed up for the Nuvi about 1 month ago.

Get the Ipod and quit~~~just like the camera they give out last time

Don't use their card no matter how many % Cash Back they told you. This is the worst credit card compnay I ever deal with. For every $1000 you spent, you could only get $3 back

Just got approved.....

amehul99 said:getting more cards will eventually effect the credit history. For $150 of nano, you are making your credit score bad and in return when you go apply for mortgage you get bad rate due to bad score.

Even 1/16th % of the rate higher for life and size of loan is much higher than $150

Think twice before doing it...is $150 nano worth $1000's when interest rate is higher due to bad credit score?Not true. If you happen to have "too many cards" and you apply for, say, a home loan, they'll just ask (or tell) you to close some of the cards.

Just go to the finance forum, plenty of discussions about this very subject.

in for one... hope the nano comes and am taking advantage of the 0% apr offer.
