I know the 1st Generation is now old news, but if I were to bring up a criticism of it that always royally pissed me off, it was the "what you see is what you get" approach they took to storage. Considering the options were 40gb initially and later 160gb, you'd have thought providing a USB port only for "Service & Diagnostics" was somewhat backward of them. I mean, if they were really into the idea of streaming (which with the latter generations is evident), why bother providing the first one with any internal storage to begin with? For that matter why bother putting a USB port on it at all... It's almost as if it originally was intended to have more functionality but they deliberately crippled it for some God only known reason...
