Wow that's ridiculous. I haven't tried to see if that's the case yet. It's the first time I saw the USB loading screen after 8.0 installation. I'll see that every time I start driving now??I got it and went for a quick half hour drive. The Release notes state that search works with the USB now, so I wanted to check that.
But...
In the half hour, my USB managed to load to only 57%, so I never got to actually check the search. Becuase it didn't finish loading it will start again next time.
So basically, for any drive less than an hour, USB is no longer available to me, and for longer drives I have to wait for the first hour to use it. Unbelievable!
