I must be insane.

I feel sick.

I just replaced the battery in my iPod. I'm sure I messed up the sides somehow. I got the replacement battery from Other World Computing last January at MacWorld SF. They have handy how-to movies on their website, but they supply the battery with two nylon "no-scratch" tools. Might as well call them "no-use" tools; I just couldn't get the back off with them. Finally broke out an old dissection tool and just cranked part of it open and then shoved in said useless nylon spreader and got the back off. Finished it OK but still feel nervous... yoiks.
