I don't think I've seen this comment addressed yet in the discussion.

Yes, you can navigate within a track on the iPod. While the track is 
playing, and with the display showing the track info and the progress 
bar, click on the central button on the iPod. The progress bar will 
change into a diamond sitting at the current place in the track. You 
can use the jog dial to move the slider around to where you want to 
listen.

It works pretty much like the slider bar at the top of the iTunes 
window.

Very handy, and I discovered it by accident. That's the downside of not 
getting a real manual, I guess.
