Sure Ricky, the back or home button will resume playback, but although
I could be wrong on this, I think she was asking about where in the
file structure she ends up after she stops a file from playing. That
button was called home on the Clip Plus and is now referred to as the
back button on the Clip zip. I just call it the back button, but some
people still refer to it as the home button. Same difference. (smiles)

Laz
