KP* - first of all, iPods don't die for good, they just die in such a way that replacement parts costs are outweighed by the lesser cost of getting a new one.

I'm not sure I understand how you "reversed the polarity." Do you mean you put the cable in backwards or something? It doesn't make sense. And are you actually opening your iPod…
