So, as I figured, it will be like my cell phone and that means when I decide
to upgrade I will buy an extra battery pack just like I do for my cell
phone. I have no problem with this.

Rose, they will be user changeable. But you will have to buy the battery
pack from APH. By user changeable, he meant you could put the battery pack
in the unit yourself, as opposed to the IPods. If your battery dies in an
IPod Shuffle, lets say, you have to send it back to Apple for a replacement.

Jeremiah 29:11 - 14 A .
11 For I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord. "They are plans for
good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
12 In those days when you pray, I will listen. 13 If you look for me in
earnest, you will find me when you seek me. 14 I will be found by you," says
the Lord.
