Read the Freakin’ Manual

I stumbled upon a great feature on the iPod. Hold down on the MENU button and it will toggle the backlight.

Fascinating. I’ve needed this many times in the darkness of the car at night.

    After that Ryan held down the play button, “What sleep mode… no way!!!”

    also holding down the forward button fast forwards, holding down the reverse button rewinds… holding down the select button… kinda does nothing…

    I keep finding little UI things too.

    Hmm what else have I found.

    If you press play (from paused) on any music group (with random) it will randomize everything nested below it, playing them all.

    ex. I want to play all compilations, or
    I want to play all Podcasts, or
    I want to play all alternative music,or
    I want to play all “My Top Rated” (my personal favorite), or
    all Pearl Jam… etc. etc. etc.

    Yeah I know! I found that out also yesterday. It’s all in the manual. The manual is a sweet, sweet piece of knowledge.
