got mine off ebay for $10 shipped for my mini. It comes with 2 mini screw drivers and easy to follow instructions. Took about 5 minutes, opened the whole thing up, removed the motherboard, put the new battery and sealed it up. Now it lasts for hours and hours, before I got 10 minutes at best from using it so much last winter.

You also void the warranty by opening up the iPod, that'll be his comeback.

I want to do this, was it real easy? cause I know I might screw up. How do you put the ipod back together? does it just snap back into place or something?

I just bought one on ebay, and I'm not sure if it comes with directions, so if it doesn't, can someone tell me how to install it?

minis are WAY better than the big fuckin ipods.
granted, you cant hold as many songs, but they are so much smaller that it is totally worth the smaller storage space.
the nanos are the most amazing things man has created.
buy some of that shit.
12 hour battery life and slimmer than all hell.
and they changed the case material, they are aluminum now and one pice, so they are stronger.
