This could be a good idea. I think we can display a list on the website pointing to the people that are in charge of each country to collect broken iPod's. > For example, you can give _me_ a hint if there's one on ebay-Austria.

If the shipping is outrageously expensive I might offer it (or find some ways to make it cheaper, I know some people traveling around the world). > As Emmanuel said, the best would be if I can get it without shipping (in > my case near Vienna) Yes, as a community we can probably organize a tree-like hardware collect mechanism where each volunteer for one country try to gather enough hardware and send it to us. > I will also do an automated search for broken ipods on ebay-Austria. Great. We're not sure yet on how to extract the content of the ROM we are collecting data about this and contacting people. Whatever method we find I suspect that we do need 5-10 chips, no more. So don't make this hunt for broken iPods too serious (we don't want to get 100 of these ! :)).
