As far as I'm concerned these are very small issues.

I have never had this problem when booting a PS2 game, on any console I have modded with the infinity. Now with PSX games I have seen long boot times, but this is easily over come by holding circle to force the chip to PSX mod and bypass the auto boot feature. Or if you boot with no controller in port 1 it will take a long time too...... but who would do that.

Oh by the way, the DMS3 V9 has the same bug that I spoke of on the V9 and V10 consoles.... not really a con, just a bug that is easy to get around.**Edit*** well I take that back, the DMS3 doesnt have quite the same bug but similar, you cant turn on the console with the eject button when its been in standby for a while, have to hit reset then eject.... also not a big deal.
