Conclusion
To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
The method shown will bend and damage the rear case. An easier way to do this is carefully insert a #17 exacto chisel blade between the front and rear case. The shuffle should be flat and the blade vertical. The blade should be inserted about 1/3 up from the bottom. Push the blade in and then push the knife to the side away from the iPod. The rear case will pop up and you can easily use an opening tool.
