The mini review of the nana over at iLounge compares the battery life of the nano (14 hours) to the later generation iPod mini (16-18). I wouldnt suggest the mini is dead by any me…

i think the flash memory consumes less power than the MicroDrive so this allowed Apple to use a smaller battery and still have 14 hours of operation. I'm so tempted by the 4GB iPo…

Thanks, I'll give it a try

ipodresq will probably charge you an arm an a leg. It sounds like the problem is fixable with a little bit of solder and a steady hand. I think you can do it. You make no mentio…
