Loving the player so far but one of my biggest beefs with it is that it takes about 1 to 2 seconds to switch tracks. Kind of a bummer when you're listening to an album where the songs flow into each other.

My previous player was an Archos Gmini400. It's an HDD-based player. Obviously switching songs would be way longer but what it seemed to do is preload/buffer then next track about 5 seconds before the current track ended. The result was pretty seamless transition. I couldn't even count it in milliseconds. But if I could I'd say it's around 24ms.
Would that idea work with the N900? Is it difficult to program such a feature?

Another issue is resources. It takes almost two times as much resources as the regular maemo5 player. It's kind of a battery drainer...
Anything that can be done about that?
