[X4U] Ipodshuffle

[Mark Des Cotes]

But you can still cycle through the songs by using the forward and 
reverse buttons. You just don't get a display of what songs are on the 
device. It's no different than using any portable CD player where you 
advance or back up one track at a time, except that you have 240 songs 
to scroll through ;-)
