Coming up on 30 minutes... what a crappy updater from the company of human interface design... I hit update on the Mac update appl and off it went.. with no feedback on the Mac side (no update complete message or anything... looked as if nothing had happened).

On the ipod, I had a progress bar that I finally noticed.

At this point its long gone and I have the blinking "do not disconnect" message.

iTunes is NOT running, so its not xferring music... what the heck is it doing, and can I disconnect?

Launching iTunes seems to have fixed it.

Installation of the update was so quick for me. The longest part was actually downloading the 30 MB or so file.

In fact, the iPod was updated so quickly that I tried to do it again thinking it wasn't done.

Enjoy your iPod.

Cheers,

Sander.
Have a nice day!
