I should also add here, as perhaps, a feature request for future 4G
updates; (Apple, are ya listening?) I would love to see the contacts
and photos sections also voiced, as I'd like to keep my portfolio
images on my IPod, to save myself carrying around my book at times.
As it is, I have them on my phone as well, but would love both my
contacts and my photos on the Nano as well.
As far as the accelerometer again, I absolutely am enamored with
the idea of being able to switch between portrait and landscape for
images, just by tilting the Nano on it's side / back again. I can't
say enough good things about this sort of design model. This is such
a wonderfully organic approach to the use of tech; and as I've said,
one which actually *works* in the real world.
I love the blurring of the 'line' between tech and intuition /
kinesthetics!…
Anyway, night All, and catch ya on the flippers!…
Smiles,
Cara :)

I actually really dig the feature; I'd love to keep it on, but the
prob is that it announces 'coverflow' and then 'now playing' again
when it's righted, so if I could just turn off those announcements,
then prob solved!
This is just a minor annoyance though, to me at least, so no
biggie. I actually really like the more kinesthetic approach Apple
is taking with the accelerometer as I totally like just shaking the
IPod for a random track. I hope they do more of this sort of thing!
… It's way fun!, and very usable in the real-world sitch!

Thanks Esther, and to David too. This Felix knows and does
already. I missed the conversations of this, my bad. I do read
posts, but not always thoroughly.
I was hoping there was a way to stop it in the programming. I
should have figured everyone would want to stop it!
Tonight he's re-naming Track 1's Track 2's etc. from his desktop
that have no song info. It's time consuming.
Have a great evening.

Hi Janet,
I don't think there is any way to turn Cover Flow off. There are
already several posts about that across the web. The only thing
that
you can do is toggle on the lock switch at the top while you're
holding the iPod Nano 4G horizontally. Then Cover Flow mode won't
engage even if you tilt your Nano 4G. But it's not a real solution
since you have to disengage the lock if you want to use the click
wheel again to navigate or select more tracks.
Cheers,
Esther

We have it now. I think the use as disc is checked b default and
that seems
to foul things up. The other hard part was the language but I got
visual
help for that because it wouldn't talk other wise.
Now to turn off cover flow and shake.

That happen to me and trying a second time seemed to work. I don't
know what happen, but I suspect my error might have been in not
checking the proper options and it getting snowed in transferring
more
content then it could handle and I probably made iTunes angry
while
trying to navigate and see what was going on.
