You do know you can set your posts per page to a higher number? Up to 200 posts per page.

Yes, it wasnt that. I had the response going in my head so I typed it before reading the rest of the thread..

There's also a hold button on the top that locks out the keys. That keeps it from getting turned on accidently.

Right...so in order to turn it off and lock out the pad I need to hold down the play button for several seconds (carefully not touching it again or any other part of the wheel cause that will turn it back on) then take off my iTrip to access the hold button and then slide it, put back on the itrip...and the reverse to turn it off.

Gee, much easier than a simple on/off button. It's just a simple case of bad ergonomics...

Not to mention the design of the case is so fragile that simply touching it can result in scratches. I've kept mine wrapped in a soft protector since new and its still scratched up despite how gentle I've been with it. I have freinds with them that look utterly destroyed after they got theirs on xmas. It's a cool looking device with some questionable usability and materials quirks.

This is my one and only complaint with my iPod. (Ok, actually, I'll agree with the no on/off switch too, I've drained the battery by pressing the play button on accident.) But my iPod is way scratched up....the first day I had it, I got a scratch on the screen, just by putting it in my purse....and the silver back of it is way scratched up already.....guess I should get a soft cover for it.

They have pretty covers for the iPods now. Pretty pretty. I think they even have shiney...

I'm sad to hear that they are so easy to scratch. My Gen 1 seems indestructable.
