A welcome complement to Apple's attempts to prolong iPod battery life, the Nupower Video+ extends the performance of a video iPod by providing additional portable power. After charging for approximately 3 hours you can carry up to 80 extra music hours (or 16 video hours) ready to use whenever your iPod runs dry. An all-in-one dock, rechargeable battery and stand, this uses your existing iPod charger and the lightweight battery snaps snugly to the back of any video iPod (with a spacer pad for 30GB models). Newertech were the first company to offer internal battery replacements but I wonder if this less fiddly alternative will prove more popular.
