The delay is of the order of 1 to 2 hours of driving.
Thanks for this response - I had no idea that it could take 1-2 hours to see the playlists. That pretty much makes a large usb drive worthless to me, as I would want to update once a week and usually don't drive more than 2 hours in a week. I'll keep using the iPod. I honestly can't tell the difference in the sound fidelity anyway.
