Shuffle interrupted

This is a bummer. My iPod Shuffle decided to crap out on me. I went through all the troubleshooting steps, and even used my PC to try to restore the software, but something has gone inconceivably wrong. I guess Apple's gonna send me a new (refurb) one and I send mine back. Hopefully I won't be too long without it. Maybe I'll just have to buy one of those Nanos...
