Well, one of the modes of starting shuffle play on a 4G Nano is to
turn it on its side and
shake it when you want to shuffle to another track. You don't have to
do it that way.
There's a menu setting that you can select, too.
And to answer Simon's questtion, the default voice is whatever your
default is set to with
VoiceOver, so most people will hear Alex. Nothing to prevent you to
having "Heather" or
one of the other voices (e.g., InfoVox/iVox) selected.
Cheers,
Esther

how did you get it so fast?
Was that addressed to me or to Scott? I walked into my local
Apple Store and asked them whether they had the 4G nanos in yet,
and they said they did. So I now have Alex reading me the albums,
artists, and song titles, along with the other menu items. The
only thing I regret is not fixing up the pronunciation of the
foreign language titles in the speech menu of VoiceOver's utility
before I did the sync.
One very odd new mode is that you can start shuffle play by
shaking the iPod nano <grin>. I'm not making this up!
