Silly me, Qables makes them too. Yeah, it ought to work.

Did you unsolder anything? One of my problems with the nano was that it would work before I screwed in the logic board and put the back case on, but when I put Humpty Dumpty together again, the click wheel wouldn't work. You just have to keep trying until it sticks, unfortunately.

Pics would be cool too.

Well, I figured it out. There is a hairline crack along the ribbon cable (you can see it in the 1st pic, right under the "1"). It looks like the diymod is put on hold...if i ever get around to buying another 1g nano!
