  • After removing the EMI shield, the battery looms large.

  • Apple claims you'll get (up to) 40 hours of audio playback. That's a long time!

  • Apple's making us do some digging to find the chips. This side of the logic board is quite barren.

  • Contrary to Apple's initial claims on their FaceTime marketing page, the iPod Touch does not have a vibrator. Apple's website has been updated to remove this claim.

  • Be careful when removing the EMI shield. There is an adhesive strip near the top of the device that may catch the ribbon cable and cause it to rip.
