I haven't tried to power mine up in years.

The battery hasn't bulged, and if I thought there was someone competent, I'd have the battery replaced.

That would depend on whether or not it would work as an iPod, with and without WiFi.

But there are a lot of hoops that might or might not be navigable.

Anyway, it's a memorable souvenir.

I'm just not sure it changed the world for the better. There's times I wish it had never been invented. We still have my late son's iPhone 4 it was his first and only iPhone.

I wonder if  Rossmann's would do it. You'd have to ship it, though.

I recently got my iPod Classic to start up, so maybe there is hope.
