Well an iPod is really just a HD and anyone who has had a HD die on them before but just wanted to get it up and running one more time to save as much data as possible knows that a shot to that drive in the right spot can get it going again.
Usually it is just temporary and the drive is by no means “fixed” but hopefully this guy has better luck.

This guy has rage issues.  Anybody that throws a $300-$500 piece of hardware against the floor is a complete #####.  There are people out there who gladly buy broken iPods.  What would he have done if throwing it against the floor didn’t work?  He’d have one damn expensive paperweight.  People like this don’t deserve iPods.

Yes, there are children out there who would give their right arm for even a BROKEN Ipod…  Won’t someone PLEASE think of the CHILDREN?!

And Canadians.  Canadians would give their left kidney for a broken ipod.

my iSkin has saved my iPod from unsightful dents and horrific error messages. they are reasonably priced they glow in the dark and come in cool colors. just a couple days ago i dropped my iPod from about 5 feet onto cement. i picked it up dusted it off and it still runs like a champ.

My ipods broken. I didn’t drop it or throw up on it or anything, i just plugged it in and now it keeps crashing with a funny sign on the screen. Everytime i re-set it the apple sign flashes a couple of times and then it crashes again. Someone please help, I’ve only had it for about a month!

I had this exact same problem - i dropped it and nows its gone gay (like apple). Im never gonna buy anything from them again, ive dropped my nokia 3300 hundreds of times and its in perfect condition why are apple so crap. The products not even fit for its use.

Its the most random thing ever as well that it shows a battery with a warning sign then a file with a warning sign. If it can display this WHY CAN’T IT PLAY MY MUSIC!!!

Surely dropping it once cant wipe an entire hard drive and if it does then it just reiterates my point that apple are actually crap.
