My iPod is Reborn!

I brought my iPod back to life with a little juice and a plastic crowbar.

You’ll remember that my iPod died. At least, I thought it was dead. I was pretty sure the battery was showing a good charge when it went blank and ignored my attempts to revive it. I went ahead and ordered an iPod shuffle because I had in my head (though I’m not sure where I got this idea) that a replacement battery was about a hundred bucks. Not so. I ordered a NuPower High-Capacity replacement battery from Other World Computing. The battery claims 30% more run time than the orginal battery and cost a mere $25.99. Replacing the old battery took about ten minutes (most of that time spent trying to pry the damn thing open). There’s an excellent video on the Other World Computing site that shows the entire process. Follow along and breathe new life into your iPod.

My iPod shuffle has been on backorder. Now I don’t know if I should cancel it…
