i am updating my ipod right now and i did notice something strange, when it is backing up i can use the ipod and play music while it backing up and do other stuff like surfing the internet.

Yup, do a "get info" on a song in iTunes, and there's a "lyrics" tab. Copy and paste lyrics in that tab. There are also other mp3 tag editing programs you can use to do this, as well as programs that search for lyrics automatically -- though the accuracy of the searches are rather spotty.

Omg as soon as the backup finished it said error ipod disconnect, i waited so long.

I noticed a slight problem when normally backing up/syncing on the ipod lock screen it would display that it is syncing and give you a slide to cancel it no longer gives me that option.

Granted, weren't these already problems before 2.0.1? So, it's not really 2.0.1 that's "********", but 2.0 that's the problem :D

I'm just messing around... these bugs sound really annoying. I am curious, though: why do you need coverflow to follow?

Good enough for me. I think they should fix it, too: not that I'd use it, but features should work. Plain and simple.

just bought a touch from a friend. seems like there is some horrid keyboard lag in safari. you have to give them a break though, this whole 2.0 update is new. took a while for leopard to run correctly too.

The 2.0.1 update is supposed to help with the keyboard lag.

I don't have that green "dot" in the lyrics on my Touch. I also don't experience any more lag than 2.0, and definitely see improvement overall.

All of your big problems with 2.0.1 are really minor quibbles. Its not **** just because of such insignificant things.

ok so i am barely updating my iPod to 2.0.1 and noticed it is 200+ mb. Now if it fixed all the bugs in 2.0 i wouldnt be upset but if it does nothing, like i have read here, why such a big file? For those who have already updated, how much space does this take up on the ipod? I already have 256 mb of "other" and i dont want anymore.

I didn't notice any lack of space on my iPod since updating, but then again, I didn't look to take notice, so it can't be much. But unlike the others, 2.0.1 has been working near-flawlessly for me, the only issue I am seeing is that the keyboard lag is still present, but not as bad as before.

witeness - has anyone else reported to you having a problem with the green dot?

It only appears after you bring up lyrics and then touch the screen again to get rid of them. It shows up for a split second as the lyrics fade, and then it's gone. Hardly a major issue.

i wasn’t going to upgrade for a few day to see how it went for other people but i just couldn’t resist, all went ok with no problems, sorry to say whiteness but i have no green dot when i bring up the lyrics, didn’t have it with 2.0 and don't have it with 2.0.1

The reason that it is that big of a file is because it also includes the previous bug fixes ect. like on the sony psp, the max update they can ever have is 30mb, so they cant do much more, or else get rid of some of the other features!!

Wow, you really can't please anyone.

I came from Windows forums where everyone whines and complains to the greener pastures of Apple....where, apparently (at least on these forums), everyone whines and complains.

Realize what you have, and how good we have it. Realize this...and shut up

my ipod is no longer crashing due to apps but now the app store and itunes is acting really sluggish and not updating things properly.

No, only 2.0 had a cost since it was a major update, even though it didn't appear to be tested at all.

haha, I never said I thought keyboard lag made this update trash. I'm incredibly greatful for this little device and what it's able to do. that being said, I'm really happy with it, but it still doesn't change the fact that there is keyboard lag in safari, haha.

It is frustrating. Interesting, though, that for me MacRumors is the most difficult site to use on my Touch. It does this thing occasionally when I'm typing in the forums when, after typing every letter, it flys to the top of the screen and then back to the text box. Talk about a lag!

yep, does that for me on a couple of different sites.

Yeah, I'm gonna look on the bright side here, a green dot would definitely spice things up, with that black overlay and white text sometimes things get boring while reading lyrics, I need some excitement in my life!
