Numbers you want to know... and a pod-rec

If you are into podcasts, or want to be, i recommend Slate's daily podcast.
We are all already aware of the great slate.com magazine website, right?
Here are two nuggets that Slate, through it's podcast, gave me.
I share them with you:

Amazon.com's customer service PHONE NUMBER: 800-201-7575 (Did you know they guarantee a price match for 30 days after you buy anything? So if you bought a gift a few weeks ago on Amazon, and see the same thing on the site for less - Amazon will refund you the diffrence)

iTunes customer service PHONE NUMBER: 800-275-2273 (then enter "70" - try again if rejected - if prompted say, "ITUNES." then say "WINDOWS MACHINE" or "MACINTOSH." answer "YES" or "NO" when they ask if you are a part of a school. One final note, you'll need the iPod serial number)

Needless to say, Amazon and Apple don't volenteer this knowledge easily. But you all have it now. You all have this wonderful power thanks to Slate.
