I don't have an iPod and don't particularly want one.
So sad. ;(
Why is that?
Well there could be different motivations so the why part
is not so easy to analyze. Hovever I do think that the
general term sad is an accurate umbrella for all of them.
1) To hate Apple so much that
If this is a battery issue there may be an inexpensive way to get a
replacement. Apples battery replacement plan costs $59 + $6.95 for
the replacement of out of warranty iPod batteries. They ship you a
new (to you at least) iPod with a fresh battery. They don't say
whether the replacements are

Not buying an iPod is NOT sad. My 4G is 2 years old
next month. It has been treated very well, never dropped, etc.
However, it has started playing 10 seconds of sounds and skipping to
the next track or freezing tighter than a drum.
That is sad.
Have you run Disk Utility on it?
Have you followed

I was thinking of the Apple Battery replacement program as a road to
an inexpensive upgrade for people with early model iPods or flaky
iPods. For $60 your first generation iPod becomes a more modern one.

I have to wonder how they decided what to have this thing
do? Hey, we can transfer MP3 files between these things
and then let them self destruct in 3 days even if they
aren't copy protected. ... such a deal!

Actually the quoted speeds are a lot slower than what USA providers
deliver and what we pay for it is a lot less. There is an upside.
Interesting. In DC I pay US$30.00 per month for 3 mbps down, 768 kbps up.
That's unlimited but that's as good as it gets on speed. No FiOS here yet.

Surprisingly the higher priced hotels/convention setups do not.

Maybe this is a Hilton policy, but I almost always stay at Hiltons.
