I remember my first RRoD all too clearly... Disconnected from xbox live, then in slight disgust I pressed the guide button on my controller, just to see the guide freeze while loading. After making the long trek to my tv to manually power down and restart the Xbox, the dreaded three red lights.

So I sent it in to Microsoft and received a shiny new 360 free of charge. These models are supposedly immune to the RRoD.

However I've begun to notice some slight lag when opening some menus (guide button, etc), as well as the more than occasional random disconnect from Xbox Live (possibly due to the wireless adapter).

I was just wondering if you guys/girls think this is a cause for concern, or if I'm just being too paranoid.

I would say that it seems rather doubtful that the symptoms you are describing with the new one would lead to RRoD. I had my first 360 RRoD a little over a year ago and none of that happened before it went belly up on me.
