My iPod turned 2 years old and croaked on me. I have the iPod pouty face. I'm beside myself. I love my iPod.
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

It has the sad face and makes a clicky noise.

Ach. The clicky noise can't be good.
Maybe it's only a hard drive replacement. Depending on the model it's supposedly doable. What model do you have?
OTOH? If you do get a new one, I'm taking donations for my "Daniel gets to take apart another iPod" campaign.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
IME, sad-faced clicky-noise making iPods are mostly good for trading in at the Apple Store for shiny new non-clicky-noise-making ones.

It is a 5th Gen. Was looking at current prices and cringing at the thought of paying to replace my baby.
I just can't see paying $299 for a iTouch and only getting 8GB of space when for $249 I can get and 80GB classic. Not that I have a spare $249 in my back pocket, but still.

I might be willing to give reseating the hard drive a crack for you if you could stand the wait and the postage.
If you have somebody closer or pro in mind, by all means.

Let me see what the Genius says on Sunday. Plus, I hit the airport next Wednesday and would really like to bring my tunes with me. We will see what happens.
eta - THANKS so much for your suggestions, links, and willingness to help.
