OK to disconnect... ?

[ThereGoesJB]

i have an 80gb ipod classic, when i eject it from my computer it says "ok to disconnect" ... and then a meter goes across the screen and it goes into the normal (usable) screen.

so is it ok to disconnect when it says "ok to disconnect"

or do i have to wait for the meter thing to fill?

this isnt even a big issue its just sort of a pet peeve that i have, for the record i usually just wait the 5 seconds for the meter to fill. its just weird that it tells me its ok before the meter starts.

its okay to disconnect when the device removes itself from itunes, and the computer says its ok.

You can disconnect it as soon as you see "OK to disconnect" with the progress bar. The progress bar only indicates that the iPod is reloading the iTunes DB stored on the device.
