are you not sending yours in because you are still getting decent battery life?

the replacement program is out there because these batteries may bulge, overheat and explode... ouch, fire in your pocket!!!

yep...i read the figure somewhere it was like 0.005% of all 1g nano's though

it's obviously not serious enough that they would do a recall 5 years later...and 1 year after the recall in asia

I talked to a CSR and they said it might be a newer nano or a replacement of at least the same 1g version. You will receive a new casing though, which is nice.
