Spoon + iPod = Bad.

So I was looking around through my stuff today for my umbrella, because I was worried it might rain today, and I found Kade's old iPod with its cracked screen. I have been reading about this cool open source firmware for old mp3 players that I wanted to try out called Rockbox, so I decided to find out how much a new screen would cost. I was fairly amazed that the replacement kit only runs about $49.99 usually, but it was on sale for only $26.99 at the moment, and even included a non-spoon based tool for opening the iPod.

Anyway, I decided to order it and am quite looking forward to ripping open an iPod to take a look at the guts. Here is a before pic, I will post an after pic when I am finished.
