Default iPod Touch Skipping!!

Took the bike out last night for a ride with my new iPod Touch. Picked it up cuz it doesn't have a hard drive. But when hitting some small bumps in the road it is skipping to a new song!! What the heck is that about? It doesn't have a hard drive, so how can a bump make it skip a song??!!? Anybody else have this happening?

I think you shake it to go to the next song. I wonder if you can turn that setting off.

Oh man....I didn't know that. My kids each have one and I don't think theres do that. But the crazy thing was playing a tune when it skipped, so that makes alot of sense!! I'm going to try and turn it off right now.

On a related note..when the battery gets very low, they will have strange performance issues as well..

If you have any other tech questions like this, ask any seven-year-old. They're so far ahead of us on this stuff it ain't funny.

I have the touch and don.t have issues with skipping.. I have it on shuffle but that for random play// I don;lt think the touch has the shake ans change like the I-pod shuffle.. just my 2 cents
