Interestingly, I was about to post a similar thread.

I'm guessing I have a dead battery. I leave mine in to charge, then  
occasionally iTunes "sees" it, and hits me with a dialog saying  
something like "iTunes has detected an iPod that needs to be restored".

When I click OK, iTunes no longer "sees" the Nano.

1st gen Nano, plugging into Powerbook with iTunes 8.01/Tiger 10.4.11
