I noticed two annoyances with Emplode recently... wondering if they were known/normal or something possibly wrong with my setup........

Speed: I hooked in via USB (the only other thing on my USB bus is an MS Explorer Mouse), but it seems to be taking significantly longer to download data than 12Mb/s would imply. I didn't really time it exactly, so I have no solid numbers, but I'm thinking it seems more on the order of 4Mb/s.

Hangs: I've only experienced a single hang during sync so far, but I've only synced maybe 6 or 7 times so far. The first syncs I did only contained 1 or 2 albums. The first serious sync (roughly 2GB) hung about 2/3 of the way through. Emplode hung, then the player eventually timed out and reset back to a normal screen, and I had to kill Emplode from the task manager. I was able to restart emplode and continue (after re-importing the un-sent tracks).
