Well then, we wouldn't want to break the LCD would we?
It played on, but sitting on the LCD would be the sux0rs.

Our first test consisted of placing the iPod nano on a solid wood chair and sitting on it, as people are prone to do from time to time. As you can guess, this "test" yielded basically zero damage results?so little, in fact, that we didn't even take pictures.

oh N0es!!1111 But its tEh C00l to Hate AppLe!1111. Teh inferior competition is teh r0x0rs

I run just about everynight with my 60gig ipod and it has never skipped on me. I use this on my right arm. I like it alot. The case also has a belt clip you can use.

Don't forget that in many states, wearing headphones in both ears, is illegal.

What do you think?

Should I go for the 4gb nano or spend the extra $50 and get the 20gb ipod?


Or should I scrap the whole ipod deal and find me another.

You should get a Dell DJ...I have a 20gig one that i've been using for a year and half now and its great

Yes but unlikely and your example does not make sense. Your hard drive died, it did not "go bad". Though, if you are using "go bad" as some blanket term for any problem then sure. Anything can "go bad".
