so, is there a solution for the current build? that's one of the very few things i dislike about the change-over to rockbox, it takes AGES to get to an artist/band if it's half way down the list or further! (i have ~300 bands on my 'pod!). Aside from this, the slow browsing speed when playing a song, and poor battery life, Rockbox certainly out-does the Apple firmware in every other aspect imaginable - it is actually amazing! maybe Apple will re-consider how much they limit their users in future firmwares..
