Need to replace your video iPod's LCD screen or faceplate? Looking to upgrade its hard drive or battery? A new website, ipodhowtovideo.com offers a number of free iPod how-to videos. These are clearly home-brew videos, but they provide well-paced step-by-step instructions and there's a refreshing lack of site-promotion in the videos. It's nice to be able to watch along with the narrative to see how the job actually gets done. I doubt I'm going to do any of these projects any time soon, but the videos made me want to go out and find a bunch of busted 5G iPods, just so I could try.

I have a 3G iPod I was given as a gift. I dropped it once and messed up the hard drive badly. I was able to replace it with a drive I bought on eBay for a fraction of the cost of new iPod.
Lately though the battery was crapping out after about half an hour. I've been working on it for a couple of weeks - draining it completely then charging for 24 - 48 hours. Today it played non-stop for 4:20.
