Is this accurate?
For example, whenever I am playing WoW directly from my iPod I realize that the application load time and (sometimes) run-time is much slower than if I were playing directly from my HDD.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding something?
Then again since its an application it is (mainly) using RAM, although there are sometimes downloaders involved that stream information onto either my iPod or HDD (depending where the application is launched).
Thanks!
