    When to charge iPOD Nano

    I was wondering if pluging my nano in 3-4 times a day for 10 min at a time will hurt the battery life. If so should I just wait till the battery is low to plugin.

    Yes.

    Wait 'till the battery is completely drained, then charge it fully. Wash, rinse, repeat.

    EDIT: You know all those people who bitched about the fact that their iPod batteries were crapping out, and sued Apple? I'm not one of them. My original 5 GB iPod ONLY NOW is beginning to show signs of not holding a decent charge because of the way I treat it.

    apparently not, according to apple. top-up charging is reccomended for li-ion, whereas drain/charge is for ni-mh/ni-cad batteries.
