Talk about Cold
Yesterday it was about 13 degrees in New York. When I left my office and got into my car, I tried to start my iPod mini and it would not work. Of course this pissed me off since I have a 45 to 60 minute commute ahead of me and radio can be such a bore sometimes.
I thought it might be the temperture that shocked the iPod so I waited till the car warmed up... nothing. I sat on it... nothing. Finally, I reset my mini and she worked! Thank God!
So today I hit the net looking for operating tempertures for the mini and this is what I found:
Environmental requirements
• Operating temperature: 32° to 95° F (0° to 35° C)
• Non operating temperature: -4° to 113° F (-20° to 45° C)
• Relative humidity: 5% to 95% noncondensing
• Maximum operating altitude: 10,000 feet (3000 m)
So basically, she had frostbite! As if I didn't have my fingers and skin to worry about in this weather!

Hypothermia, surely? Frostbite would mean bits of your 'pod turned black and fell off. You may not be covered for that in the warranty.
