If you have a 4G (Clickwheel) iPod, and you use it, don’t install iPod Software 3.1.1. This version of the firmware causes the iPod to crash sometimes, even often, when going to sleep or waking up. You then need to do a force-reset (hold MENU & SELECT for 6-10 secs) in order to cause it to spin up, losing your place in a bookmarkable file, and possibly play counts for other tracks. I downgraded (using the Restore feature from iPod Updater 2005-09-23.app), and haven’t had a single crash since.
