How to power off 5th Gen ipod nano

I've only used a 4th gen nano a couple of times and holding the play/pause button would turn off the nano.
I've just bought a 5th gen nano for somebody but holding the play/pause button only turns off the screen - hitting any other button brings it back to life.

How do I completely power it down ?

Thanks

Hello paddymacwack,

You turn off your 5th generation Nano the same way you did for your 4th generation by holding the Play/Pause button. However, upon hitting these buttons you should also activate the hold switch, that way you don't actually bump it and turn the iPod back on at any point.
