How long is a ipod mini 4g second generation supposed to last?

I am planning to get the ipod nano 8g and i had the ipod mini 4g before. I had the mini for 2yrs and someone i know thinks that that is a very short time for someone to have an ipod or mp3 player. I think that 2 yrs is pretty long for an ipod. How long is an ipod mini supposed to last when used daily and frequently?
is having the iPod for 2 yrs a long time?

It depends on the usage habits. I have a first gen mini that still works perfect and the battery lasts as long as I need. The most common problem with these is that the battery fails. You can get replacements online for $12. My wife’s 3rd generation iPod 40GB battery failed last year and she wanted a nano for size and battery performance reasons. I just bought her one for our anniversary. The color screen is well worth it and the battery does last longer.

It will last a long time, but if you want the color display or album art it might be worth the upgrade. You can sell your old one on ebay or something.

    My friend has had her mini for over like 4 years or something, and it is still working great, so I would say a few more years on it.
