    I've went through the asus forum a few days ago, to my suprise there was loads of users complaining about the V6V freezing when USB devices are being used, and that some USB connections are not working properly.
    Can any V6V owners confirm this?
    Thanks

    The only thing I've used is the mouse, but I've never had a freeze up.

    Firewire was behaving erratically until, at someone elses suggestion, I turned on the bluetooth. Never had a problem again. Go figure.

    I haven't had any problems when transerfering pictures from my digital camera via the USB ports. Additionally I haven't had any "freezing" when running programs, or backing up on my extern harddrive.

    The only problem i have encountered was that the transfer was only at usb 1.0 speed, but I solved this by switching on the usb 2.0 in the BIOS setup.

    In short - no problems at all...

    (Maybe it's a specific shipment or something like that, mine is about 3 months old.)
