Hello guys,

I have a 1GB iPod Nano first-generation taking dust for over a year now. The screen is broken, my brother accidentally ran over the it with a wheelchair he was using at the time, so there's not user interaction with the thing.

Any ideas on what to do with this oldie? I was thinking of using it as a Shuffle, but it may be a hassle at times.

Thanks in advance,
Hg+

You could take it to an Apple Store and get a 10% discount on a new iPod as long as you purchase one the same day.

Enable it as a drive and use it as a USB stick? or get an iTrip or dock cable adapter and use it with your car stereo? Some have remote controls.

It'll be much easier if you just comply.
