Sounds easy enough. Anyone got the tracking link? i've tried to find it but im not coming up with anything.
I'm normally alot more laid back about these things, but my computer at work crashed just after i submitted the serial number so i didn't have time to take not of any relevant www's or numbers.
Yep - ours arrived today and it's been replaced by a new 6th gen 8gb model. Result.
Ooo... I hope I get a 6th Gen model - I sent mine back on thr 30th Nov, received by Apple on the 14th December.According to the Repair Status, replacement is now pending.
Anyone else received a replacement yet?
I'd rather have a 1st gen back tbh, I'm not sure the new ones are compatable with the dock on my car stereo and from what I've read the new ones are almost impossible to use if you can't see the screen.
Although I doubt I'll get one at all, sent the old one off on the 20th(ish) of November, status still shows 'empty box dispatched' and I can't find the postage reciept. Think the missus might have thrown it in her pre xmas tidy up.
Again the power of the STW forum has given me heads up! My old Nano, which I gave to my son, is affected and an envelope will be on its way to me.
My son will be happy if he gets a 8gb touch nano. He moans that the 1gb isn't big enough.
Thanks guys!
Mines still showing as " replacement pending" since 7th Dec.
Ultimately not too bothered whether I get a new or old one as a replacement.
APple are pretty good with replacements full stop, wife washed her 4th gen iPod, didn't want to replace it with the lastest version rang Apple up and they replaced it with a brand new one of the same model at a very good price, i.e. a lot less than a new one.
Brand new touch screen version turned up this morning.
Despite my misgivings 
Very pleased. 6th gen touchscreen 8gb arrived via UPS this morning.
Good swap for a knackered 1gb Nano. 
Mine is still "replacement pending" and has been since the Nov 17th.
Oh well, in no major hurry. My 4th Gen seems to be holding up fine despite dropping it in the garden yesterday.
Right - must get mine down to the PO post haste!
Got mine this morning
8GB touch model
Happy with that!
*drums fingers on desk waiting for postie to turn up
Very nice 8G nano just turned up. Charging convertor reserved for collection at Maplin so the whole exercise has cost me £7.99. Can't complain. 
Charging convertor reserved for collection at Maplin
whassat?
whassat?
It's a little dongle thing that allows recent ipods to charge from older dock equipment. Like the iPod connector in my car, for example, which dates way back to 2010.
ooh had no Idea that might be necessary i'd better check!
Ta

Mine had a cracked screen ,it still lit up but half of it was illegible.
Sent it ack anyway and received a shiny new Nano back earlier this week.
Another 6th genn in silver just turned up here, PR heaven for apple this and a real one in the eye for the nay sayers....
Still waiting ..... 
I returned mine towards the end of November, still only showing as empty box dispatched so phoned apple last night, the guy I spoke to reckoned the backlog had been cleared so it must have been lost in the post. Said if I emailed a scan of the postage receipt he'd force a replacement.....now I can't find the bloody reciept GRRRRR
Postage receipt? Mine went out via UPS.
Anyway, got the replacement today. Interesting they're not using the retina display on it so the icons look a bit low-res.
Got it!!!!
Just getting round to putting mine in the post. On the shipping instructions there seems to be something missing; an address! If there was a postage label it has been lost.
Where did you all send it to?
Anyone help me with the address to send it to?
You're supposed to have got a pre-paid and pre-addressed return bag. If yours isn't I'd get on to Apple and ask for another one.
Stilltortoise - I can't remember, but I don't think the bag did have an address on it. Just a sticker with a bar code and some reference numbers. That seems to be enough though, I sent mine off in that and they've received it and tied it up with my request. Mine is now 'product replacement pending'.
Mmm, sounds like I never got that or I've lost it
I applied and my special bag never appeared so I phoned them and they sent a replacement, now I've got my shiny new 8 gb Nano. The only problem is that the new Nanos don't charge off things like sound docks; the word on the web is that Apple have re-configured the Nano to prevent this and to ensure that you use only Apple approved chargers. It charges off the wall charger or the USB connection though.
It's not Apple excluding 3rd party chargers, it's manufacturers not adhering to the USB standard. iPods used to have a FireWire interface, so could accept an unregulated voltage (6-12V) on the FireWire pin and do it's own voltage conversion, so 3rd party accessories used that instead of doing the regulated USB output like they were advised to. FireWire is now gone from the iPods, so if there is no voltage on the USB pin, then the accessory won't work.
