After almost 4 years together my Ipod has finally left me

Used her for hours almost every day, 3 batterys changed, 7000 or so tracks with not even 10% backed up
Tbh I had considered trade her in for one of the new slutty video ones but I stayed loyal and couldnt be assed spending days transfering tracks.
Now i dont think I could find anything to replace her
Damm I really did love that gadget

Not been this upset about a toy since christmas 84.

aah, that sucks then! does the drive still spin up at all? does windows see it as a hard disk when you plug it in? Does the ipod even register as a USB or Firewire device in windows device manager?
i was a bit upset when my g1 ipod died but you'll get over it - it'll just take a bit of time.
Cheers,
Steve
