how do you actually switch off an ipod

Found my old iPod in a drawer and charged it up. There's no obvious power off option, holding play just pauses. Does it ever fully turn off or does it just sleep until the battery dies?

Depends which one. iPod touch, hold the top button until the power off slider shows. The old click wheel ones never really power off, holding Play/Pause for a few seconds puts them to sleep and that's as off as they get. Shuffle has a physical switch.
