iPod Problems...

Okay, so my Wife decided it would be a good idea to leave her iPod Nano in the pocket of one of her jackets. That's fine... I apparently thought it would be an EVEN BETTER idea to wash said jacket. Twice.

So, I found the Nano in the bottom of the washer, and it was DOA.

After some internet searching, we put it in a bowl with rice, leaving it to draw as much moisture out of it as it could. And after a couple of days, it's been back to normal now.

Now, I have an old warhorse of an iPod. As close as I can figure it, it's about 5 years old. It's old monochrome, and came out right before the iPod Photo. (So, that should give you a time frame...) This is the one thing that gets me through my 40 hours of work every week. I listen to it all day, and it charges every night. If I forget to pick it up in the morning, this is the one thing that I turn around to come back to get.

So, now, after we get the wife's Nano resurrected, my warhorse starts making a grinding sound and will not be recognized in iTunes. LOVELY. And all of my searching points to the iPod, even if I can get it back for a while, the hard drive will crash soon.

GREAT.
