ipod: 1200mah battery upgrade, advice required

[Cian]

Hey,
I'm thinking of ordering a 1200mah battery from ebay and I wanted to hear from others who have upgraded already. Is it easy to replace the battery? I have only seen batteries for 60gb video ipods, and mine is 80gb. Will this do?

Thanks:)

Not sure what the problem is? But after reading the 'posting in this forum', I changed my thread title to the format requested in the read me...that ok?

Edit: Thanks for the link. The batteries are quite cheap from ebay and you get the tools too so it seems like it should be fairly simple but I wanna hear from others who have done it and can tell me how they got on.

I was asked by a mod to post it here.

I have opened up my video iPod quite a few times.  Just separate the halves slowly and you'll be fine.  It should be apparent what needs to be disconnected and how to do that once the shell is open.
