iPod iPod Screen Frozen... :-(

[amateurmacfreak]

Ok, I was jogging with my iPod (it was in a cupholder, so not all moving with my movements), and all of a sudden it just stopped. The screen totally froze and my iPod is being non-responsive to eveeerything. 🙁 It's a 30GB 5G iPod. Shot of what it's doing is included here.
I am just so sad.... 🙁 will Apple cover this in warranty?????😕
Oh, I've tried to charge it and to connect it to my comp. NO SUCCESS!! NOTHING RECOGNIZES IT!! 😡
Anyone had this sort of trouble? wtf happened to it??
Oh, also, before it quit I noticed it skipping around from song to song a bit erratically....
I'm just pretty sad and a bit worried about it. 🙁
EDIT: forgot to attach pic. gotta take one, then it will be up 😱

This happens sometimes. Just hold MENU and the Center button for 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo on the screen. It will reboot.
