ipod: "do not disconnect" for hours

I have a problem with my ipod: It said "do not disconnect" for a very
long time. iTunes said "no ipod connected". So I unplugged the ipod.
But it kept saying "do not disconnect". Next morning the battery was
empty from displaying the "do not disconnect" screen all night. I
plugged it again, but it kept saying "do not disconnect". Now I
unplugged it again and the message is still on the ipod screen.

I pressed play+select to reset it, but no luck. What can I do?
