    i've heard that if you let the battery die completely and then fully recharge it, it could possibly extend battery life slowly if you keep doing it.

    Keep your iPod charged at all times while in the car and home and the batter wont be a factor

    Ya that is true, it is called "working the battery". It was for the PSP. The only problem is that you cant drain a IPOD do completly dead. So,it wont work. My opinion is that the battery life is fine. I can watch 2 movies, a few episodes of TV, and then few hours of songs with battery left over. If you are buyying an IPOD the battery life sould be a PRO not a CON.

    A tip when being careful with battery life - [bold]always keep your iPod on hold[/bold] when it's not in the palm of your hand. If you don't, & leave your iPod on accidentally, you'll be amazed at how quickly the battery life will deteriorate ;-)
