Ive had my ipod mini 4G for about 8 months now, and this is the first problem ive had with it.
when i finished using it the other night i turned it off like usual, it was probably half full battery. and when i woke up in the morning i couldnt turn it on, so i left it on the charger all day. but when i went back to get it the screen was still blank. the backlight isnt working either, its like its completely dead.
it hasnt been dropped or anything....i cant figure out the problem.
thanks heaps if you can help

Try a reset. Hold the menu and center button for about 6 seconds (or until the Apple logo comes on). Failing that, try a software restore (you'll lose everything on the iPod though). Download it from apple.com.

Failing that, take it in for repairs/replacement as it's still under warranty.
