but if your battery is screwed...your ipod is screwed....and how much does it cost to have it replaced by Apple ? quite a bit right...might as well save a bit more and get a whole new unit..

OR..

replace the battery youself.. biggrin.gif

Thats for pre-5G ipods. I think the 5Gs had the batt soldered. I know the nano does.
