Re: yay for ipod battery
that vid is only for the 1G and 2G models, just looking at the 4G I cant see how the metal backing is going to come off either, thats one of the things I have noticed about the three pieces of apple hardware which I have (iPod, iBook, iSight) is that from just looking at them it is very hard to see how they would really come apart easily.

It's white, it's pretty, it costs twice as much as any other screwdriver, and it only works with Apple's products.
