no it dont use extra power. it just disables buttons.

i believe what the hold switch is doing is just cutting the circuit to the buttons so they send now power to anything else. its like you have 2 wires. and holds them together power runs thro. pull them apart nothing.

however the ipod uses power when its off anyway. i mean if you were to let it sit by itself for a month or something you'd notice it having less power.


Lets put it this way.... if you DONT have hold on and you accidently press a button and it turns on... your using more power then, than if the hold was on. :P
