Popular online
iPod repair and mod site iPodMods.com has announced its name
change to Rapid Repair in light of an expansion of service
offerings that extends far beyond iPod enhancements.
Beginning
Tuesday, April 24, 2007, popular iPod repair and mod site iPod Mods will officially change its
name to Rapid Repair and launch its new website at http://www.rapidrepair.com. The change comes as the result of
the companys rapid expansion into product and service offerings
that now extend past iPod product repairs and modifications.
With the
increased popularity of Microsoft's Zune player has come an
increased demand for repairs and custom mods for Apples rival
player. We're now offering a lot of the same services for the
Zune, such as battery replacement, screen repair and custom mods,
as we are for the iPod, says Aaron Vronko, Service Manager of
Rapid Repair.
Vronko says that
LCD screen repairs and battery replacements account for more than
50% of the 500+ weekly service requests. He says screen repairs,
which account for about 27% of all orders, are in particularly
high demand because Apple does not offer a screen repair service
and in fact will void the entire warranty because of a broken
screen.
Battery
replacements, which total about 25% of all repair orders, are
driven by the fact that neither Apple nor Microsoft has designed
their music players with customer-replaceable batteries. The iPod
and the Zune are designed in such a way that requires that the
device be dismantled in order to replace the battery.
Though Apples
battery replacement difficulties have been widely talked about in
online tech circles, Microsofts Zune player poses similar
difficulties in battery replacement, accounting for a surge in new
business beyond the scope of the iPod.
Rapid Repair
also offers 100GB hard drive modifications for both players, which
has become particularly popular among Zune owners whose players
come standard with 30GB hard drives. The 100 gig hard drive is
definitely our number one mod request followed by color mods and
battery upgrades, says Vronko.
The once iPod
only repair and mod site will also begin offering service for the
Apple iPhone which is scheduled for launch in late June or early
July. With the old name, people didn't necessarily know about
all of the different technologies we now service. The new name
focuses on our primary goal after quality which is speed. We are
as addicted to our technology as our customers and make it a
priority to repair and return equipment as quickly as possible.
