Well, if you move the HOLD button down, you arrive in the SHUT

because I thought it didn't have time to transfer the data to the memory
card before shutting down.


I'm sure that the switch isn't really any kind of on/off switch. It would just
send a signal to the OS to start shutdown. And writing any remaining data out
to the card would be a standard action for the OS before it actually shuts
down. Any kind of gadget that shut down without writing out all updates to
files would be a really bad design.
