One small improvement, but only for podcasts

Why this feature only appears for podcasts and not for everything else, I don't know, but I noticed that when navigating to podcasts, if the title is longer than fits on the screen, it now scrolls the title after a second or two so you can read the whole thing. When you select such a long title, it immediately replaces the "..." with the portion that fits there, then scrolls after a second or so. This is true not only for the individual podcast files, but the entire Podcast menu tree. I certainly hope they'll extend this feature to music browsing too! Especially on the iPod mini, many genre/artist/album/song titles are longer than the screen can fit.

One small improvement, but only for podcasts - Tungsten2K

The iPod photo has done this since it's inception. They have probably done more tests and made more optimizations for some of the older iPods with slower processors to perform in-menu auto-scrolling.

I have a G2 and G4 b/w iPod and both have always done this, it's not new.
