Rebooting an iPod Touch

I upgraded my first gen iPod Touch to the 3.0 OS and it seems to noticeably slow down after a week or so of usage (Safari, Mail, Music, App Store, ...) Found the following How to Reboot an iPod Touch, which seems to help, for a few days at least.

1. Hold the "Power" button until you see the "Slide To Power Off" slider.
2. Let go of the "Power" button, and slide the slider.
3. Wait until it turns off completely, press the "Power" button again to turn it back on.
