I think I have the latest firmware on the device currently. I know I 
upgraded a a year or 2 ago and one of the big changes I noticed was the 
volume control became a scroll wheel! I always wished there would have 
been a "select all" function on the unit but I just took to making 
playlists on the computer with all the songs in it, easiest way to do it 
when I just want to random play everything on the player. But I'm sure 
development is long since abandoned on this old player. However, I don't 
plan to replace it until it dies, and it will probably be with a Zen. As 
I've yet to see an iPod with this longevity!
