Media key DOES have a use after all

This is probably common news and i'm making a tit of myself posting this, but just found the media key which i thought to be rather pointless is in fact a instant way to access the music player. Just press and hold it for like....a second and it fires right up! Thats gotta be quicker than going into the menu of flipping the slider. You can save valuable seconds people!!!!!!!!!

Right, though I personally don't feel that I have to free up any slot in my active standby apps list. So I'm quite happy the way it is. Good to know though about the tip if things change.
