iFixit tears apart the 5th Generation iPod nano…nicely

September 11th, 2009 admin

Filed under: Analysis / Opinion , Hardware , iPod nano The pioneers at iFixit are at it again, this time exploring the Loop’s newest, coolest gadget — the iPod nano . According to their measurements, this iPod is as thin as it could possibly be, and more densely packed than any previous Apple device. I work on iPods at my day job, but I’m afraid to start working on this one because there is very little wasted space and LOTS of glue.
