I've just realised I can't access the i pod with a double press of the home button when my phone is locked. This was very handy on my 3gs, now I have to slide to unlock enter my restriction pin and double press it to bring up the shortcuts. Anyone else notice this or am I missing something?

Yep, you need to press it once to wake the phone and then twice to bring up the iPod controls.
