two things to try...

1. Is the hold switch on? The hold switch can be turned on by mistake... check it has a white scetion showing, not orange.

2. Try resseting the Ipod... Pressing the middle key on its own will not work... you need to press the middle bitton AND the play button at the same time, then hold both down until the screen goes blank and the Apple logo appears.

Try resetting your iPod, if you haven't already. If that doesn't work, no problem, just let your iPod stay turned on all night, and the battery will eventually go dead. Then plug it back in to your computer and let it charge for as long as you can before you leave. Then, after you eject the iPod from your computer, try turning your iPod on again. That should do it.
