Replying to Help with a bricked ipod touch (won't turn on or charge, not recognized by my computer)

.qzyxya:
Probably not the best place to post this, but whatever. My ipod touch 4th gen 32gb has suddnely stopped working and won't turn on or do anything. The battery's dead, but when I try to charge it (I've tried 3 different chargers, usb and wall charger) the screen just stays black and doesn't do anything. I left it 'charging' for over a day straight and it still wouldn't turn on. I've only had it for a few weeks and its not physically damaged as far as I can see.
Also, when I try to plug it in to my computer it just says 'device not recognized'. No matter what I do it just stays with the black screen. I tried doing the 30 second power and home button thing to reset it, but nothing happened.
Does anyone know how to fix this? I'll take it to the apple store when I get a chance, but they're probably just going to say i need to buy a new one or something.
