I wasn't luck with my iPod Nano 3rd Gen however. Recently took it out of the box and I had the same issue with the battery swelling. The battery pushed on the screen causing a dark spot. It is apparently a common issue with iPods. I will order a replacement battery and fingers crossed I can also revive this little guy. While it was connected with the cable it worked great. And there is an app called Flooza or something that's kinda like a light iTunes that let you manage everything on it. I didn't make a heavy use of the MBP so there's that. Took it to India though! It survived a night long trip from Delhi to Dharamshala. There was such insane potholes and the bus was shaking so much, and the laptop was in my baggage at the underside of the bus. I thought it was done for :P I guess it's a nice thing about old hardware is they have a story.
