iPod nano Menu Icon Hack

Someone has hacked the iPod nano firmware to show icons in the menu listings. I have to say I really like the way this looks, but it's a lot of work and you risk hosing your iPod nano in the process. There's a tutorial and photos posted at this site. Links to the firmware hacks and other files are at the bottom of the post.

Same disclaimer rules apply for all hacks: if you hose your iPod, it's your fault. Don't risk your iPod if you can't afford to lose your iPod. But if you do decide to do something like this, we'd love to hear about your adventures (or misadventures).

Make Magazine also has a detailed writeup about how this is done. Worth reading if you're planning on hacking your iPod nano.
