If you have never done "safely remove hardware" then I would expect you files systems to become corrupted. I thought you read these forums and had seen that "unmount" is the same as "safely remove hardware". Letting it sit a long time is no guarantee for correct writing.
As for the first paragraph... I've been OUT of programming for almost as long as I was IN it. And installing most of the apps I use is a simple, painless - nearly BRAINless process.

As for the second... I've not yet received the latest firmware update - and my firmware I *DO* have is build 476, not 538. Not a good thing.

As for the third... I'm going to presume you're NOT being sarcastic when you ask whether I understood that you meant the same thing using 'unmount' as by 'safely remove hardware'.
