Replying to IPod Touch Help +++++++++k

hello, my ipod touch is a piece of crap so i need your guys help. i know there are tons of threads on iPod touch help and such, but each person's problem is different when it comes to electronics. alright, so i tried to restore my ipod, from the ipod itself, because i forgot the password that i recently set it to(silly me). so it did it's whole restoring thing, and when it was turning back on after restoring, it got bricked on the apple logo, with the little spinning circle below it. and its been frozen like that. so i plugged it into the computer, and itunes won't recognize it, like nothing shows up.ive tried softbooting it, and everything apple told me... i think its really broken this time :'''''''( any ideas newschoolers?
