i sliced up my thumb something brutal trying to fix my ipod. bought a replacement lcd off of ebay for $6.99. it came with a couple little plastic prybar tools and no instructions. after watching tutorials where people who know what the **** theyre doing make the process look easy, i decide to try it. so when you apply some force and the edge of the plastic tool slices through the back side of your thumb, cutting a deep gash from nail to knuckle (which hurts like a mother ****er), you know theyre just showing off. needless to say i managed to open the peice of crap and managed to do the repair without breaking something else, and now that bar of damaged pixels that used to go across the screen is gone. i figure when this ****er finally dies, il try one of those open source mp3 player kits that anti-closed-source types have formulated.
