It is indeed JVM 1.4.2 I have on the Windows box. I also was doing a sync last night of two of my master playlists from the empeg, and this morning it failed with I believe "Unable to communicate with device". The Transfer window showed the tracks that had been sent over, and the ones pending, but nothing would get it to go again. The Karma was still on the sync screen. Wish I had more info, I had to rush off to work though.

I'll be trying the bigger syncs off the Powerbook probably tomorrow night.
