If you're an iPod fanatic (you know who I'm talking

that after they replaced their original iPod battery with one from
Newertech they went from 4 hours to 21 hours of playtime. It cost them
$40 and five minute's effort, (although this definitely voids the
warranty). The $40 includes a tool set and installation guide, and if
you tack on the coupon code 'HIGHROAD' when you check out you can get
the NewerTech RoadTrip FM Transmitter device for only $9.99. Not bad,
especially if you've got an older iPod (1st or 2nd gen) with a worn

06/22/2005 01:54 AMFastMac on Monday announced an iPod battery upgrade that utilizes
patented nanoparticle technology. The company's new upgrade utilizes
patented nanoparticle technology codenamed “TruePower,” that
significantly slows the degradation of the battery by protecting and
preventing damage to the battery’s internal lithium crystal matrix
caused by power spikes.
“If you’re spending more time recharging your iPod than you are
actually using it, this upgrade is for you” Business Development
Manager for FastMac Performance Upgrades Michael Lowdermilk said.
“This really is the last battery your iPod will ever need.”
The upgrade is available for first, second and third generation iPods
and comes with a two-year warranty.

iPod battery swap surprisingly easy
iPod battery swap surprisingly easy
09/08/2004 09:45 PM
Mark Frauenfelder:
Plenty of people have swapped a new battery into their iPod, so the
fact that I did it, too, is nothing new. But the fact that someone as
clumsy as I am did it in about ten minutes without destroying the iPod
is surprising. If you're as fumbled fingered as I am and have been
afraid to open your iPod, I hope this gives you the courage to take
action.
Here's what happened: Last year, I gave my six-year-old daughter my
old 10 Gig old-style iPod, because I got a 20 Gig model. Last month,
she started complaining that the battery wasn't holding a charge. This
is a known problem with iPods. Last week, her iPod was dying after
running for just a few minutes. It was time to crack it open.
Using Froogle, I searched on "iPod battery" and found this replacement unit for $30. The shipping was around $6 and it
arrived via 2-day UPS.
(Click images for enlargement)
When it
arrived (on time), I opened it and found the battery, some
instructions (the same ones found here), and a
cute-as-a-button miniature screwdriver with a little clip on it so you
can insert it in a shirt pocket. Following the instructions, I
carefully inserted the screwdriver into the crack between the metal
case and clear plastic lid. But the screwdriver's blade was way too
thick to get into the seam. I ended up gouging the plastic.
I set the
screwdriver aside and grabbed a kitchen knife. It took about three or
four minutes of tentative probing before I could get the knife blade
worked in far enough to give me enough leverage to start to separate
the top from the bottom. Once I got it started, though, I was able to
use the adorable little screwdriver to pry the iPod the rest of the
way open.
The old
battery was attached to the hard drive with a couple of strips of
padded, double-sided tape. I tore the tape a little while removed the
old battery, and one of the strips got stuck to itself, but it wasn't
a big deal. The battery has a couple of wires coming out of it, ending
in a tiny white plug that goes into a socket. It was easy to unplug. I
took the new battery and stuck it onto the sticky tape. Then I plugged
it in the little socket. The cover snapped right on.
After
charging it overnight, I gave it to my daughter and it has been
running for hours. Mission accomplished!

Settlement reached in iPod battery
lawsuit
Settlement reached in iPod battery
lawsuit
06/05/2005 11:20 PMApple is offering consumers who had battery problems with older
versions of the popular iPod digital music player $50 vouchers and
extended service warranties under a tentative settlement in a
class-action lawsuit.
According to AP, lawyers representing consumers in the state court
case said that the settlement could affect as many as 2 million people
nationwide who purchased first-, second- and third-generation iPods
through May 2004. Apple confirmed the settlement but has not
officially commented.
The settlement comes after eight consumers filed a suit in 2003,
alleging that the iPod failed to live up to claims that the
rechargeable battery would last the product's lifetime and play music
continuously for up to 10 hours. According to the terms of the
settlement, people who fill out a claim form are entitled to receive
$50 redeemable toward the purchase of any Apple products or services
except iTunes downloads or iTunes gift certificates.
Consumers will be notified of the tentative settlement in three ways:
by e-mail, by letters, and through advertisements in USA Today and
Parade Magazine in the next month, said Elizabeth C. Pritzker, an
attorney at Burlingame-based law firm Cotchett, Pitre, Simon &
McCarthy LLP, which represented two plaintiffs. Apple has agreed to
pay up to $2.8 million to the two law firms that represented
consumers.

08/13/2004 07:17 AMGriffin Technology has introduced
RoadTrip, a 3-in-1 device that provides an FM transmitter, charger and cradle
for all dock-capable iPod and iPod mini MP3 players. The transmitter
broadcasts your music on any FM frequency on your car stereo, with a
backlit display that shows which frequency is in use, while the
charger keeps your iPod's battery at full capacity. The RoadTrip plugs
into any 12-volt outlet or cigarette lighter in your car and its
transmitter unit can be removed and plugged into a USB port on your
computer, enabling music broadcast from it to any nearby FM stereo.
Griffin has left the top of the US$79.99 device open for use with
other iPod accessories, which means RoadTrip isn't compatible with the
1G and 2G iPods that have FireWire ports on top.
