Phwoar! I think you broke it or something. Is the hold switch on? Thats the only thing I can think of, also do a reset (hold play/menu).

bahaha. i didnt mean to blame the case for it. i dont think the 2 cent rubber can do that much damage.

the hold switch isnt on, but even if it was...if i connected it to the dock, shouldnt it connect anyway?

and as for doing the menu/play thing...none of the buttons are responsive. so its not working either. eep!

take it back if you still can.

this problem has nothing to do with the case, it must just be a coincidence.

Maybe the iPod had issues with the iSkin color you chose.

Seriously, take dynomite's advice.

No need to take it back yet.

Check apple's official advice here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60958

For the reset you should press the buttons for at least a few seconds...

and our faq's (perhaps this http://www.ipodlounge.com/faqs_more.php?id=1597_0_10_0_C)

Another trick that has worked in the past is trying to get it to respond via the remote.

Hope it works soon.
