Apple iPod mini 1st Generation Silver (4 GB) MP3 Player

Now and again, sod's law kicks in and theres nothing you can do about it. if like me you enjoy listen to your ipod mini when on your holidays by the pool watch out for those crazy ego's who like to drench everyone by bomb jumping into the pool right next to you and your ipod. problem for me is that how do i get it repaired as i think the battery is knackered or maybe worse even. This ipod was a present from Xmas 2004.
When your ipod is not working only then do you realise that you have lost one of your best mates - the ipod mini

Can anyone recomend a firm or know a solution.
