Did you try the 'hard reset' described on Apples website? That usually fixes mine when it locks : Resetting iPod if it appears frozen or doesn't respond. Try this with the ipod plugged directly into the power socket (not usb / firewire charging) also.

that high pitched noise is just the hard drive spinning. its in all the ipods with large storage capacities (ie mini, and regular ipods)

but can you listen to your movies or songs?

Hey, I have the exact same problem and so far I havent been able to figure it out. It wont charge, turn on, or reset.

did you check the apple support forums? you could also send it in for a repair as the video isn't a year old so you still have a waranty. i would check the apple support forums, they are VERY helpful.
