Batteries…earjacks…Even harddrives…motherboards and casings can be purchased online…

The battery needs recharging more frequently now but it still works a treat and i've used it extensively for three solid years. No complaint here.</p> I've had my iPod just over three years.

My only caveat on IPODS is that they do not use AAA or AA rechargeable batteries that can be removed and the displays can only last as long as the backlighting. It good news for most except Apple itself.</p> Good news on recycling thru repairs.

I'm sure he'll do great business with all the problems iPod's have, and is AWESOME to those consumers who don't want to buy new for something that only needs a bit of tweaking to be recycled. Will definitely remember for future!</p> Props to the guy for providing something that we don't see anywhere else.
