it's a second generation ipod touch
if the power button fails, it's in most cases a fluid damage or a worn out switch.
you can use the Power-Volume-Controls-Replacement guide to get to the ribbon cable.
check the actual switch if it look's corroded (white/greenish) or i any way damaged. those switches are simply thin metal plates, secured by a plastic strip/scotch tape..
if you find some corrosion (check the connector of the cable too) - clean it with isopropyl alcohol (>90%) - if the metal inside the switch is black, use a needle to "scratch" it carefully of the metal - don't bent the thin metal to much

thanks for the info. I looked under "parts" and it doesnt show a power/volume control. Any idea where I'd get one?
i buy those things on ebay - here is a search for that part on ebay.com: CLICK
