# I had mine replaced at the start of january
just before the years warranty expired, due to battery problems. So this one's only about 3 months old, but the replacement warranty is only for 90 days, which has passed. Cunts.

But I was reading up, and i reckon i could change the drive or battery myself if required. Certainly not paying apple for servicing

# replacing the battery isn't hard, but the hard drive is a little trickier
as that involves a near total dismantlement of the ipod.
but it all depends what model you have, the newer they are the harder to fix as they keep getting smaller.

# 40 gb 4th Gen clickwheel thing
Dunno, hopefully reformatting should solve my problems, but it's taken hours just to get iPod updater to recognise it.
