Just before Xmess, I looked into this stuff for a client, who is using an old G4/400 and 10.3.9. She wanted an iPod and was being told by sales people that she had to get Leopard (I know they told her that that because they don't sell Tiger anymore, but it's ridiculous and sleazy of them to pitch Leopard given the age of her system). This client has no need for a new computer OR Tiger, let alone Leopard (which wouldn't even run on her machine AFAIK).
I pointed her toward refurb previous-generation iPods at the Apple Store. They work with 10.3.9. Maybe you can return the one you got and get one of those instead.
I am not happy about the minimum requirements for the new ones. But it sounds like you're stuck with either getting Tiger on eBay or returning the iPod.
