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 )

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