Don't throw away old iPods - recycle them

My kids (both in college - always kids in my eyes) have a number of old iPods sitting around - broken screens, wheels, buttons, faulty batteries, you name it. Since I have little control over what plays in the GL, and can only control the iPod from the steering wheel, I thought why leave a newer unit in the glove box when I can take a dead unit and give it new life.

Dusted one of them off, loaded my music, plugged it in - works like new. Wish I thought of this sooner before I bought the iTouch.

So, like, dad, you are like recycling the iPod. Neat.

Excellent idea! And keep two sets of earbuds or headphones in the seatback pouches for unexpected passengers who don't want to listen to your music!
