I just got an 8GB nano and when I got it the battery indicator lit up as 3/4 charged. I loaded about 1300 songs onto it (which took about 15 minutes), played a few songs, and then the battery indicator went into the red. Did the song loading really use up that much charge? (and why was it 3/4 charged when it was brand new?)

you are suppose to charge the battery for 3 hours(full charge) before ANY use.

Well it sure doesn't say that in the Quick Start Guide.

Try draining the battery out, and then giving it a full charge. This could be an easy fix to your problem.

So... why doesn't the quick start guide tell you this little piece of information? Seems pretty important.
