I do remember that FAQ entry... But I neither have faulty wiring nor did I yank the player before shutting off ignition. The player shut down just like it does every otehr time. That's why I found this behaviour strange.

As an aside, so far, any time where I have had to yank the player (after a button freeze where the player will not shut down) it always seems to remember my track position properly.

Oh... And damn you for FAQing me.
