iPod Touch stuck in 'restore' mode - restore process freezes

We've got an iPod Touch that's in 'restore' mode. I've made several attempts to restore it, and it freezes during the restore. It's been restored before, but now it freezes every time. Has anyone had this problem and solved it?

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.

- Try on another computer

- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
