hammers do a good job on electronics of all sorts

i still have a 2nd generation iPod on my desk at work... it will not die.

I had one that stopped charging. Took it to the Apple store and they said, "sorry about that," and gave me a new one. It was something like $25 since I was upgrading.

it's iPod, not I-Pod.  and seriously, wtf? It's not like you don't have my number.

WTF?! I haven't seen that Nano yet. 

I have 2 other iPods..nano and 8 gig 2nd gen (I believe).  I can use those.  I need to get everything on one though.  Tried using Sharepod software but haven't figured it out yet. 

The new Nano is available in 8GB or 16GB (available in 7 colors).  

When using iTunes to manage your music, connect each iPod to iTunes and upload content from each into a shared/common library.

Then use Playlists to select what content is available on each/any iPod.

IMO the new nano sucks.  it's great as a music player but does nothing else of value.  I returned mine after I discovered it has less features for the same price.  go with a touch if you watch shows.
threadjack off......

you may be stuck in dfu mode, did you do a software upgrade?  didn't read the instructions but try this:

1. First, Open up iTunes, plug in your iPod Touch/iPhone to the CPU's USB port. Turn on your CPU's speaker and make sure it is loud enough that you can hear it.

2. Hold down the Home button (top left for iPod Touch and top right for the iPhone with the screen facing you) and the Power button (located on the front bottom of your iPod Touch/iPhone) simutaneously, until the screen goes black and the device turns off. (past the red slider/slide to power off screen)

3. Now let go of the Power button, but continue to hold the Home button. Your iPod Touch/iPhone should have turned off and the screen should not be on.

4. After around ~10-20 seconds, you will hear a noise (beep/ding) from your CPU as if it had just recognized a new hardware device, now iTunes should recognize it in DFU mode.

5. After iTunes recognizes the iPod Touch/iPhone, let go of the Home button otherwise it will go into recovery mode and you will have to do the entire DFU process over again.

6. You will know when you have put your iPod Touch/iPhone correctly into DFU mode when the display is blank and that you do not have anything on your device.

And you are done, now you can install any iPod Touch/iPhone firmware on to your device via the iTunes SHIFT recovery method.
