ohsnap ipod broken :-(

Post by woutR »

I went on a sailing trip last weekend and my iPod may have been in contact with water.
I didn't really think it was going to harm him much since I know someone who had her iPod in the washing machine and it still survived.

Anyways, mine is carved out of other wood and it didn't survive the water. I can charge my iPod, I can put songs on it, I can basically do everything with it except going further than the main menu.
I can scroll around in the main menu but when I press the select button (the circle in the middle) nothing happens. I am guessing this button or feature is broken :(

Where do I get my iPod fixed? Will it cost me much, will it take much time? Am I better off just buying a nextgen iPod?

Any of you had the same problem and found a fix?

My life's ruined without my iPod, I need it to stay in social isolation and to keep myself from real life things like socializing :(

Just take it to an apple store, ask what it's gonna cost you, and with that figure in mind, decide if ur buying a new one or repairing.

Buy in the meantime a cheap mp3 player at your local Bart Smit. Keeps you at least a little in your social isolation

When you put two ipods of different sex next to eachother, their screens flash and you get a tamagochi like thing that is born. It's a lot of work though, for guys anyways. All you have to do on the girl ipod is scroll into the menu and click "feed" a couple times a day. The male one makes you play minigames for 8 hours a day, and sometimes even 12 close to christmas time. If you do the same thing with two ipods of the same sex, they just flash and nothing happens.
