By "Classic", they mean "Old and Slow"

Just how Really Bad are the new Classics?

Here is my list so far -

/- VERY Slow menu switching response (up to SIX seconds)

/- Display of clock rather than song info when "Now Playing"

/- Inability to use existing LEGAL 3rd party dock products (including Apple-advertised)

/- Audio skipping during operation of menus

/- Slow connection to Mac/PC

/- Inability to disable "split-screen" menus

/- Lagging / Unresponsive click-wheel

/- Camera Connector not working

/- Inability to use EQ settings without skipping / distortion

( I will be buying a 5.5G model rather than this premature abomination )
