It is a known fault with the 1st g model. If it is still under the apple care warranty it most likely will be replaced.

so if i go to apple store with my box and all that they replace it?

Yeah, or you could go online and request a repair. That's what I did and within 2 days, a prepaid box was sent over, I put my iPod in, and sent it off. In about a 3 days, I got a replacement iPod which looked brand new.

My old one did that as well. It is a known problem. When I sent it in they claimed to have fixed it, but it came back with the same problem. Take it to the apple store and ask them to either 1.fix it, 2. replace it as it is under warranty. Unless it frequently gets stuck and sends you back to the home screen while in an application there really is no problem.
