Unless you purchased the options AppleCare+ extended warranty, Apple will exchange your 16 GB 5G iPod for a refurbished one for $99. They do not fix yours.

Apple - iPod Repair price

With AppleCare+ the exchange cost is $29

You can do the exchange at an Apple store

Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

- I would backup the iPod at home first. If you have non-iTunes purchases on the iPod like from CDs Apple will not transfer them.

- You should make an appointment, otherwise you will hae to likely have to wait.

- The refurbs look new, that have a new back and battery in addition to other parts that required replacement.

- I do not know if you can get AppleCare+ on teh replacment iPod. You wil have to ask
