Not sure if this works on other ipods but it works for nano, which is interesting...



Pull out the headphones during a song or audiobook - nano will count 2 seconds - plug in un-pause - you're back where you left off...

    I think my ipod photo (30 GB) may do that as well... \

    I love the fact that when I turn off my car, the Belkin power adapter plugged into my iPod loses "power," thereby causing the iPod to pause automatically. If only the iPod could unpause as soon as it senses power again....

    Never knew about that. It pauses when you pull out the headphones? I don't think my 3G iPod does that!

    My Rev A mini does not pause when you unplug the headphones. I never knew the rev B models did that. I thought only the 4G iPods had that feature.

    Its a great feature. Its one of those descreet design decisions that makes me keep buying Apple products.



    What would be even more cool would be if they paused when I unplugged my head phones at the other end (where cord enters the headphones) AND unpaused when replugging it again. I mostly use my iPod while biking and often have the cord running inside my clothes (between shirt and jacket) and unplug it at "the other end" instead of reaching down into my bag or layers of clothes.

    4G in this case means fourth generation, versus 4 GB where I would have used the full "GB" moniker.



    Either way, its cool that the later revisions included that feature. I wish a firmware update for the rev A minis would enable it.

    Is it simply a software hack or is does it require the necessary hardware?



    My iPod's headphone jack doubles as a mic jack if I boot up in Linux.
