Apple Launches U.S. Back-to-School Promo, Does Not Include iPhone
Alongside today's minor update to its white MacBook, Apple announced the launch of its annual Back to School promo for U.S. education customers. This year's program offers rebates of up to $229 on the full line of iPods when purchased with a qualifying new Apple computer, which includes all Macs except the Mac mini.
Both the Mac and iPod must be purchased at the same time on the same receipt, and purchases must be made either directly from Apple or at an Apple Authorized Campus Store. This year's program runs through September 8th, 2009.
This year's promotion had been rumored to extend to the 8 GB iPhone this year, but the claim did not come to fruition.
Apple is currently running a similar promotion in Canada, and typically offers such programs in a number of other countries later in the year.
