  • The new Nano is more like a Shuffle with a screen than a Nano with multi-touch. The iPod's case design is very similar to iPod Shuffle we took apart yesterday.

  • Since there were no visible screws, our first inclination was to turn up the heat.

  • Our lovely heat gun managed to loosen the glue holding the display in place.

  • Gentle prying with an iPod Nano opening tool around the perimeter allowed us to separate the display from the rest of the device.
