Default FS:Broken 4g 40g ipod and accessories

hey all,
jahn my great pal gave me this as a christmas present but i dont know what to do with it since i live in a small town without an apple store.

white 40gig 3rd(correction from above. i dont know much about ipods) generation ipod. in good cosmetic condition. also comes with a black slappa case. also included pocketdock.
original ipod buds and remote control and the original box.
jahn stated that he dropped it and it doesnt work. there are no obvious cracks and the lcd is not cracked or damaged in anyway. but as i stated above with no resources and the apple website wanting to charge 274 dollars to look at it i post it here so maybe a diyer can fix this cheap.
the ipod and all the extra accessories i am looking for 75 bucks plus shipping. if you are handy this can be your chance to snag one cheap. thanks for looking

1911 you fool, you just don't know the depths of my practical jokes. call apple - that ipod is actually still in warranty i just found out. i just got this email - which means the joke is on me since all you have to do is walk into an apple store and bingo you have a new ipod, versus the 500 bucks i had to pay for it last year!


Your one-year warranty is about to expire.
Purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan for iPod—just $59—and extend your hardware service coverage and technical support to two years from your iPod purchase date. This is your final opportunity to take advantage of the support and service available under the AppleCare Protection Plan for iPod.* And it's the best way to make sure your music plays on.


Award-winning technical support.
With the AppleCare Protection Plan for iPod, you get direct access to expert technical support by phone and anytime access to web-based resources.** The AppleCare Protection Plan gives you:

Superior service and support for iPod, its battery, iTunes, and most accessories included in the iPod box†

Extended hardware service coverage to two years from your iPod purchase date

Expert support for Mac and PC users


Global service coverage.
Whether you're at home or on the road, should your iPod need service during the next year, Apple-certified technicians will repair it or provide a replacement.

Enroll in the AppleCare Protection Plan for iPod for just $59 before your warranty coverage ends. Purchase and enroll online or call 1-800-APL-CARE (1-800-275-2273).
