I'm done with mp3 players...

Also, don't forget the huge bumpers on the Archos devices ;)

After opening it up...not all hope is lost! It comes on and works (the hard drive) without the cover on, so my guess is that there's too much pressure on the drive - maybe from the new battery I installed a while ago...

Funny thing is, this new battery was the exact same dimensions as the stock so it's not like I got an oversized battery....suggestions?

I've had my ipodmini1g for around 3 years and I've dropped it a few times and it hasn't had the first mechanical/hardware problem.  Granted I've killed it a few times software-wise what with all the experimentation I'vd done with iPodLinux/ipodWizard/Rockbox but that's all on me.

Seems my battery was the problem...it was very swollen...almost like a balloon.

My 5th gen 30 gb iPod hasn't brocken yet but I've only had it for a couple of months.  I even run and work out with that thing on and I have dropped it many times but it has always held up.
