Is there a hack, or would anyone know how to hack the 6th gen nano, so that instead of shuffling songs in shake, it displays the clock, or turns it on? This would be really helpful when wearing it as a watch. I'm surprised apple didn't put this in.

update to the latest firmware of 1.2

check settings and there should be a setting there Time/clock on wake.

so when you press the power button it takes you to the clock right away

I have that set up. But it would be nice to just shake my wrist to open it. Timed had a similar feature were shaking your wrist would turn on the indiglo. This way you could check the time with just one hand.
