in materials and workmanship has arisen in the Covered Equipment, or (ii) the capacity of a 

covered iPod battery to hold an electrical charge has depleted fifty (50%) percent or more

the Covered Equipment with a replacement product that is new or equivalent to new in 

performance and reliability, and is at least functionally equivalent to the original product. If
