hmmm... what was wrong with just replacing batteries?
Now we have a device that has a limited life span of about 2-5 years due to the battery (which can develop faults)....
I dont like Apple purposely creating limit life span products, and using tones of glue to make them difficult to repair - this is not good and quite distrusting of Apple... Steve Jobs would hate all this glue -- what ever happened to good well-built great designed products???
