Actually if it's a LiIon battery, it probably *does* have a chip. (I
would be happy to be wrong about this.) Whether the iPod uses it, I
couldn't guess. If Rockbox relies on a hard-coded value for the
capacity, charging could get ugly if the battery is replaced with one
that has less capacity. Or as Dell laptop owners like to say, "Boom!"
Makes me glad the Sansa e200 code uses the original firmware for charging.
