Its weird...

It keeps freezing on me..once in a while i can get the keys to work..and then i try to pick a song to play..all goes well until the displat shows Now playing. Then it just hangs. There is no music coming out of the earphones either...and it just sits there...

Though I notice that the song title moves on to the next track..but no sound is coming out??

Pls pls pls tell me a quick fix- I really do not look forward to shipping this back to apple..i live in japan, and it is a huge pain in the rear end to talk to those folks on the apple call centre.

Help help help!
