They will, however, eventually run out of juice. Luckily, Fstop Blues has posted a very detailed tutorial on how you can replace your iPod mini's battery yourself for about $30.

Just a heads up, a good number of you who attempt to do this yourself will unfortunately break the molex connector for the clickwheel. Be extremely careful and make sure to put the pressure on the plastic connector, not on the cable!
Otherwise you may find yourself visiting us at www.ipodmods.com for a new clickwheel to match your new battery! ;)
iWonder if she's cute.
