I didn't find out about the secret ipod game until today.

for those who don't know....hold down the center button on the "About" screen

Just wondering....this hidden game, is it changeable if apple releases firmware in the future?

I'd like to see either Unreal tournament or maybe something simple like tetris.

Old news but I like the UT suggestion. Put a bluetooth chip in and you'll be good to go.

Got 800+ on my train ride home today...

It gets pretty hairy with three balls at the same time! Generally much more enjoyable than playing "Snake".

Too bad there's no "pause" or "resume" ability.

If you hit the play/pause button once, it will pause the game for you. If you are listening to music at the same time, when you resume, the game continues but not the music.

1151 is my highest score...it took about an hour to get there.
