Hi,
I have had the ipod for the last 6 months. It has been superb. Just yesterday, I was on a flight from San Diego to New Jersey via DC, and I heard 55 of my own five star rated tracks continually on my Bose Quiet Comfort headphones (which are equally awesome for what they do - not audiophile!) without the battery failing on either the iPod or the Bose. I will admit that the iPod is close to being completely drained, but I will take that length of usage anyday.
You sure appear to have a lemon; Apple is typically very good about taking care of such things. I have been a Mac fan for years, and (touch wood) have had them always be on the up and up with any issues.
Good luck. As someone else said, the iPod is a fabulous device. Now if could get it to be compatible with my car's system ...!
