The recently released firmware for the 5G iPod (you know, the iPod with Video) includes a feature that I don’t think anyone has mentioned before. As far as I know, Mr Jobs didn’t even mention it in the presentation.
Scott has just pointed out that when using the touch-wheel to browse your library, a certain number of revolutions at high speed cause a letter to appear on screen. From this point, keeping your finger on the touch-wheel maintains visibility and scrolling the wheel cycles through the alphabet. Letting go skips straight to the corresponding part of your collection.

It’s a neat feature, and certainly makes scrolling through a large collection quite a bit easier. Perhaps it goes some way to making up for the lack of the search functionality found in new iPods?
? … Steve mentioed it twice! But’s it’s a cool feature
Ah, did he? Damn. Really must pay attention in future…
Still, as you said, it’s a cool feature.
And anyway, I didn’t find it, Scott did! Yes, that’s it, I’ll blame Scott.
Yeah well…er….I wasnt monitoring last nights announcement, so therefore I wasnt the one who thinks it wasnt covered.
Damn you and your lack of interest in his Steve-ness Scott
Next time I’ll take notes. Maybe.
…and Im not the one whos only got 5 “D” artists on his ipod!!!
and only 1 “E”!!!! ….2 “F”s…..
(repeat to Z)
And?!?! What’s the problem with only having five Ds on my iPod? I much prefer J. How many Ds do you have?
It’s iPod Alphabet Wars folks! No need to download your games from the iTunes store – you can make your own fun for free!
Did you plan it so Fiona Apple was on there?
Good job she was on there.
Gary Glitter was lurking just off the bottom of the screen.
Fiona bloody Apple?
Launch the pies!
