When I get it into disk mode (which usually takes a few tries) it only stays in disk mode for about 15-20 seconds. When it is in disk mode though my ibook sees it in the usb port but it doesn't show up in itunes. Im not sure if I can fix it or if it needs to be sent in, it is teetering on the fence of fixable by me or send it in to be fixed. What should I do? And because it wont show up in itunes I can restore it that way.

Take it to an Apple store and let a genius look at it.

Another update...I've called Apple and I'm going to an Apple Store and they will test it and if it's a hardware problem (most certainly must be) then they will give me a new one. (refurb is a possibility too)

I'm excited for Friday!! Thanks Apple!!
