Problem with my Toshiba HD-A20KU HD-DVD Player?
Hi. I think I might be having a problem with my A20 that I just bought last night. 
When I hit my "rewind" button, it pauses for about 2 seconds and then starts to rewind, but it sure isn't fluid - it kind of jumps or skips backward. Is this normal behavior or defective?
Also, can someone verify the boot time? When I turn the power on, I can't even eject for about 20 seconds... Normal?
Thanks so much!

As for the 20 seconds...that's normal. The A1 took like a minute, lol.

Its a Generation 2 player. This is not like DVD which has been around for 10 years and his been improved numerous times. Its a new format...hence the high price tag. Its part of the growing pains on both formats.
