the flashing could come from a empty battery, if the voltage is to low, the ipod could not be charged via the usb port, the freshly charged energy is not enough to start the device fully and thats why it switches off again - this loop can go for days (had this on a few motorola phones) - but if you use an ac charger it will charge the ipod over this point!
