Found a bizarre bug in GT5. My driver’s hands are moving, but the steering wheel he’s “holding” is not.

So what happens if you update iOS OTA with the device unplugged, and the battery dies mid-update? Do you just have to restore in iTunes?

@vemedio Love the “continuous playback” option in Instacast, but can we have an option for it to play newer episodes next instead of older?
