How long did you use them? Because the battery will die, eventually. Apple claims you've got, at best, three to four years before the battery is basically useless.
Sure - but then you will actually still be able to buy a replacement battery, unlike for most PC notebooks that old.
I really enjoyed my 3rd-gen iPod. That 10 GB sucker kept me in good listening mode for about five years. Eventually, the hard drive crapped out. I still have it, though it is difficult to see how much use it would be unless I replaced the hard drive and battery - assuming I could even find replacement parts.
