If you have a Macintosh, you can also charge the iPod mini battery by connecting
iPod mini to your computer (see below). If you have a Windows PC, in most cases you
can charge the iPod mini battery by connecting iPod mini to your computer. If the
battery is charging, the battery icon on the iPod mini screen animates.
Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles and may eventually
need to be replaced. Battery life and number of charge cycles vary by use and settings.
