CNET Networks site TechRepublic runs a regular series called "Cracking Open" in which it takes a look inside a variety of gadgets. CNET News is publishing this excerpt of a photo gallery that takes apart Apple's iPod Nano (fourth-generation).
Cracking Open iPod's from Apple is not for the faint of heart. We had already lost one iPod Nano to the Cracking Open process. Did the fourth-generation iPod Nano survive our prying? This iPod Nano from Apple is taller and thinner than the previous generation. The media player is also well-built and difficult to crack open, but that didn't stop us from trying--even if it meant sacrificing the device's ability to operate.
