Apple problem when updating iPod Classic to 1.02
« on: October 18, 2007, 02:59:50 pm »

Reported by engadget:

"... reports that the recent iPod classic 1.0.2 update has a nasty bug in it that causes the drive to constantly spin -- a glitch that's a little more troubling than those freezing issues we heard about, since bumping a spinning platter is a sure way to kill your drive dead."

Yep, I've been bitten by this once already. You wake up to a fully drained device. Big discussion here:

Some think it has to do with coverflow and recommend not shutting down the device from the coverflow menu. Exit to main menu first. I don't know if that is really the culprit though. Hopefully, Apple will acknowledge the problem and fix it.
