We bought Kayleigh a 2g iPod shuffle for Xmas, and it has been stuck to her ears ever since.
Last night I told her to put her muddy school trousers in the wshing machine, but then noticed the headphones going round and round half hour later.
The poor kid was devestated.
When the washing was done, it didn't work (no suprise there), but about 2 hours later, the power light came on, but no sound. So we've left it to dry out, but it still doesn't want to work, and now not even a power light.
So this morning, I logged onto the Apple site for tech support, filled in all the bits as it's still under warranty, and then clicked 'submit'. It told me that I would be getting an email which would tell me what to do.
Well the emails come through and that says they are sending out a replacement, and then they want me to send this one back!
Now, admittedly I didn't tell them that it had been washed, I just said there was no power. Do you think they'll be able to tell? It's such a tiny little thing and seems sealed so water isn't going to pour out.
It's this one:
