Ummm... YES!

Let me explain. In versions 0.91-1.00 (build 468) using my 'engineering sample' Cybook, I had *NO*, *NONE*, *NOT ONE* problem doing that.

With the retail Cybook that replaced it, I'm doing the 'safely remove hardware' bit *EVERY SINGLE TIME* and I've had no problem - but I had corrupted filesystem just unplugging the cable. Go figure.
