Hi Guys, been a while.. Aren't we talking about another scenario though? The menu itself is static but the scenario of having say a USB based hard-disk full of media that plugged in after load? I know I'm skipping here but even if there was an image cache you woudn't want that kind of content pre-loaded would you? I much preffer the idea of having UI feedback telling me that my images are loading and what status the load is at as long as it doesn't block my ability to control the UI navigation I'm in a hurry..
