RIP Stop screwing with my feelings, iPod Nano

So my first-gen iPod nano decided to die on me last night. I was listening to it in bed and it died in the middle of the song, so I thought it ran out of battery. I plugged it in this morning, and an error popped up saying ‘USB DEVICE IS MALFUNCTIONING’. I’ve restarted the iPod for nearly a hundred times now, and on random (by that I mean, twice in a hundred restarts) it says ‘restore iPod with iTunes’, but the problem is that the iPod hangs right after, so my computer doesn’t recognize it.

Ah well, it’s been a good… three years? A year and a half? Six months? With Apple products dropping dead all the time to make way for a new one, who the hell knows. I swear Apple builds a time-bomb inside their products or something. 4th-gen nano coming out? Okay, first-gen, YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO *presses button*.

And dammit, iPod, did you really have to die at a time like this? I was hoping you’d last until the iPhone prices went down. Or no longer under AT&T’s monopoly, whichever came first.

I don’t like the design of the newer generations, and 2GB of space is really more than enough for me. So ILU, iPod nano. You will always be close to my heart.

ETA: FALSE ALARM IT’S BACK YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!
ETA 2: Oh shit, it’s down again.
ETA 3: IT’S BACK UP BACK UP BACK UP CELEBRATION OH JOY
ETA 4: OH FUCK YOU.
ETA 5: Please don’t go away! ;_____;
ETA 6: It’s dead. RIP. I’ll never forget all the times we had together! <3333
