I also think that iTunes is slick and easy to use but with Amazon now offering MP3's it's going to be harder to justify the upcharge for an iPod. Just my humble opinion. http://lifehacker.com/software/ipod/how-to-replace-your-ipods-battery-236138.php http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-10165_7-5643378-1.html http://www.wired.com/gadgets/mac/news/2004/10/65424 Replacing the battery yourself is the way to go. It's half the price of getting someone else to do it, and very easy to do. Title: Re: Your iPod made me do it Post by: Clive on March 04, 2008, 06:59:50 PM Good read.
