Screen flashes apple logo. Wont turn on
Screen flashes apple logo and wont turn on. Also when I have it plugged in to charge, it wont turn off but works fine other wise. Hmm, go figure. I have synced, and it says fully charged. Any help?

I just did an experiment with my 3GS phone and if I power it OFF and plug it into the PC via the standard iPod cable it powers up. I can then power off with switch as normal
Sounds like the headphone assy (includes power switch) or button are faulty.
That would fist your description - cant turn on, cant turn off when connected to iPod cable.
