Answer to: smashed iPod, can I get the music out?
Get the flash memory drive (most likely built onto the main logic board) and solder it in to another iPod, then plug that one in. You should then be able to extract your files.

Installing iBook G3 12" Upper Case
Not unless you have to! Most parts can be removed with this left in. Don't try pulling on it unless you have to, it can easily break the logic board. Just tilt the upper case up to lean it on the display.

Installing iBook G4 12" 800 MHz-1.2 GHz Upper Case
You don't have to remove the power button connector to remove most parts! It's really dodgy and can break your logic board. When you peel up the glue on the wire for the microphone connector, lean the upper case on the display.
