Damn, found an old ipod in mine... You beat us all I think.

Now get UMW's reflash and enjoy 1.1-1.2bar of boost, it's definitely faster...

There are a lot of options on that sticker - try to get them decoded in order to know what you have. Congrats!

Or order a Cert of Authenticity. That is very cool that the prior owner did not know that.
