You should make a distinction between the temperature at which and iPod will seize functioning, and the temperature at which it will actually start to show melting signs. Since iPod covers are made out of durable plastics and glass, the melting temperature will probably be much higher than the temperature at which it breaks, I estimate that around 150°C. However, the lithium ion battery will be less resistant to such a high temperature, and the chemical reaction will get out of control even before the iPod reaches 150°C, making the battery and thus the iPod explode. Since the cover contains glass, this may expose you to a hazard since the explosion will occur before melting, so make sure you take the right safety measures before performing such experiments.
