Do new 10gb iPods still have idle problem

The old 10gb iPods had a problem after 30 minutes or so if it was used while jogging.



I think it had to do with the 10 gig hard drive as the problem didn't affect the 5 gig version.

I'm wondering if this problem has been fixed.

    I can see why the drive may idle after 30 minutes of jogging. The iPod only has a 20 minute skip protection. Maybe, it's unable to rebuffer while you're running. Too bad Hard Drives have to have moving parts and aren't solid state.

    Don't know if it's been fixed, I have an iPod 1 month Old. NO troubles at all so far anyway..

    But I don't Jog. So I don't Jar it as much as a runner would. :cool:
