I mean it no longer works if your iPod is updated using the 2006-01-10 software.

Yes, this does not work if you use the above updater.

Hi -Dre-,

To answer your question

iPod Warranty Says:

"This warranty does not apply: (a) to damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse, misapplication, or non-Apple products; (b) to damage caused by service performed by anyone other than Apple; (c) to a product or a part that has been modified without the written permission of Apple; or (d) if any Apple serial number has been removed or defaced."

I believe that includes all Apple Products

Apple Hardware Warranty Says:

"Software distributed by Apple with or without the Apple brand name (including, but not limited to system software) is not covered under this Limited Warranty. Refer to the licensing agreement accompanying the software for details of your rights with respect to its use."

By "hacking" your computer, iPod, or any other Apple product (whether software or hardware), you are voiding your Limited Warranty.

If you understand the "hack", you could probably very succesfully argue it is not a hack in any way whatsoever.
Also, the display used is already built into the iPod/OS.
