I've been using it for a few months now, mostly in combination with car mode while listening to audio books, and in practice it is a very nice feature to have. I originally did not have the rewind on manual (pressing the pause button), but added it at Sideral's suggestion. It works better than I anticipated: listening to an audio book while doing household chores and my wife asks me something, the rewind recovers the gap between removing the 'phones and pressing pause.
