Photos: Cracking open the fourth-gen iPod nano

The battery and circuit board structure are the last thing removed from the case. It would have been so much easier if this apparatus just slid out of the case. Apple has apparently decided that the iPod nano is not a serviceable device. If yours breaks, you'll be getting a new or recertified replacement.

Managed to remove and reconnect the screen but could not remove without breaking the touch pad ribbon or hold switch ribbon cable
So I wonder how they make them ???
