I just got a new 80GB after 4 months :eek: of not having one. I used to have a 5G 30Gb and the GUI was blazing fast. Is it normal for this 6G to actually have such a slow and crappy GUI? I've also noticed that the ClickWheel is not responsive to clicks, besides the "rub" to navigate through songs...

It looks good, it's really thin but the GUI... ugh, disappointed by it. :(

Comments, feedback and what not very welcome.

Are you running iPod software 1.0.3?

+1

The stock firmware on my Classic was painfully slow but 1.0.3 has made it very snappy. Just as fast as my 5G was, and smoother while music is playing. (My 5G would get very choppy while music was playing in the background)
