Can anyone explain to me how this shake control works? Sometimes it kicks in, sometimes, it doesn't. Is there some kind of setting to turn it off and on?

The shake control is kinda neat, but also kinda pointless. To use it just hold down the Walkman key (the one with the same stylized 'W' as is on the back of the phone) and give the phone a shake or flick and it should work! The feature seems to work much better if you shake the phone side to side instead of up and down.
I'm not aware of any way to turn it off.
for me it didnt work, dont know how to turn it on :-(

In early proto video's it was possible to turn it of: at the place you can turn shuffle on and off.

Hi Guys,
I came across this website which has the steps on how to use the shake feature in w580i without pressing the walkman button.
Here it goes.
1. Press Walkman (W) button.
2. Press Play.
3. Press down arrow (V).
4. Press right arrow 2 times (> >).
5. Press Walkman (W) button again.
6. Shake the phone left or right.
Shortcut - ( W Play V > > W ) - Shake shake.
Song shuffles. Cool isnt'it?
