Gapless playback relies on a few things, including the files need to be in the right format. Often "random" mp3 files ripped from CDs or downloaded will not play as gapless, for example (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gapless_playback). It's quite possible that the person reporting that on the thread was not testing with "gapless-capable" files, so I wouldn't worry too much until we get more info.
