Yes, the refurbs are the same as the regular units. They're just ones that were returned or had a problem that was fixed.

They could (and often do) have fake back plates, fake (and less sensitive) scroll panels, scratches etc, new but cheap batteries and use a logic board from a 30gb iPod with only 32MB of RAM and not 64MB which the 60/80gb models are meant to have.

Be sure to buy form a reputable seller and fully understand the description and grading.

 

Chances are you will be happy, but I'd opt for a well looked after second hand one (that was bought new) if you can find one.

Good luck!
