iPod engraving invalidates warranty?

I was going to buy my Mum an iPod nano, and get something engraved on it but someone told me that if it breaks they can't swap it out or repair it. Can anyone confirm please?

Thanks in advance.

well looking at this site it says if the engraving is done by apple then no, the warranty is good for a full year regardless, but it does say that its non-refundable

I engraved my own (Laser Printer at work) and they swapped it without questioning it

You're right!

3) Battery: Myth: The new Video iPod Battery is terribly weak. Truth: It’s normal. Let your battery run down and recharge it. When you get the iPod, use it down! After you do that, recharge and the battery will work like a charm!”
