Thanks.
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 :) On Sep 23, 2008, at 3:56 AM, Cara Quinn wrote: > 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.
