I just got an iPod Nano as a thank you from my work (thanks Tim!) about 5 days ago. On Monday I went cycling with it - yeah I shouldn’t but later in the evening there’s hardly anyone biking on the paths and the earphones you get don’t really block any outside sound. I was amazed at how much I could actually hear, as if the music was more background.

Anyhow, I paused the music while I took a breather. I guess the Nano needed a breather too because it shut off and wouldn’t wake up! I assumed it automatically shut off because it wasn’t in use for a few minutes and maybe the battery died … 14 hours my ass.
