# moving through files with an ipod shuffle?

Hi all. On the new ipod shuffle I was wondering there doesn't seem to be a way on the ear phones controls to move forward and backward through a file. I can move from playlist to playlist and move tracks that way but I can't seem to move forward and backward through files within the same playlist. Is this not something you can do or am I just missing something.

Earphone controls? Wow. Sounds really limiting if you want to (or knowing the ipod earphones have to) change your earphones, or if you want a better pair or certain audio activities.

Check the manual. It is possible, but I don't remember how to do it.
The earphone controls are somewhat limiting right now, however there is, or is soon going to be, a cord that has them and a standard headphone plug.
