I have gotten the 30gb ipod from stars. It does not come with any pokerstars logo or advertisement anywhere.

ugh double beat. I just emailed them to ask for a cancellation or update to the new one when it's announced. Fingers crossed.

I ordered the Nano for 17,000 FPPs a couple months ago and (here in Canada) it shipped direct from Futureshop, no PS logo, just like if I bought it myself. They also e-mailed me a "receipt" for warranty purposes.

I found it to be good value for my FPPs, as it's in Futureshop right now for $299.99, or $342 with taxes, making my FPPs worth 2.1 cents per point.

I can't recall how long it took me to get the points though, and I wasn't playing very much.

Yeah, my PokerStars iPod came without any markings. I have enough points to get one from Full Tilt, but I want to resell it and would prefer it not be engraved. Ah well.

For NL$25 you would need to play the following:

Bronze --- 117,000 Hands
Silver --- 78,000 Hands
Gold ----- 58,000 Hands
Platinum - 47,000 Hands

These numbers assume that you don't escalate in VIP levels. As you cross each level, the number of remaining hands needed will diminish because of the increasing FPP factor. Also, they are approximations based on the average FPP accruals for the hands I have played at the limit. The FPP accrual for NL$25 was 0.146 VPPs per hand played.

edit to add: these are for full ring play. I think short handed would be about 15% less.

Thanks for the replies guys.

Trying to decide my best method to get a Nano.

Either:

PokerStars: 17,000 FPP
Cake: 830 Gold Chips - I currently have around 40 chips and could just pay 5 chip donkaments.
PSO: Costs about 30,000 points.

Dude, just winning two of the satellites to the Sunday Million that award 4 seats and selling the T$ will give you enough money to buy the 80GB model and have money leftover. I won three on Sunday afternoon and I suck at SNGs.

How long did it take you to recieve the ipod once you purchased it from pokerstars? I'm thinkin of doing the same thing.
