iPod Touch 1st Generation Back Cover

Metal Tabs

The iPod Touch First Generation back cover has contacts for the sleep/wake button, and the Wi-Fi antenna. There are no screws that secure the back cover. Instead, they use an ingenious mechanism consisting of metal tabs. All I had to do was to wedge around the edges some plastic strips of credit card.
