Frigidaire affinity dryer is big on space, small on time

I've already bragged, ahem blogged about how incredibly large the affinity washer is. I've showed you how it held up against my 'friend' The Ladybug. So were you wondering just how I was going to dry all laundry?
Luckily for me, the Frigidiaire affinity is a Fits-MoreTM 7.0 cubic foot Dryer! This is the largest capacity dryer in a standard size (based on dryers 36" or less in height and 27" or less in depth).
Not only that, the affinity dryer has DrySenseTM technology which dries clothes more precisely and with less wrinkles. We kept hearing the dyer buzzer go off before the drying cycle was done. What I figured out is that the dyer was drying my clothes faster than what I had expected! Clothes are more evenly dry (no wet waistbands in my jeans) and the soft tumble keeps the wrinkles from setting in.
What I haven't tested is the TimeWiseTM technology where the wash time equals the dry time. I know I'm not the only to wait around to start the washer 10 minutes into the dyer cycle so that it all ends at the same time! What I plan to do as a test is start a normal wash and time it, then set it to normal dry and see if it's equal. Check back to see if it works!
Here's a photos of the right-side of the dyer 'dashboard' so you can see all the choices.

How about a washing machine that would automatically separate the colored from the whites? I have a closet full of "pink" shirts.

Mike - I have done that sooo many times with a red blanket. I've washed that thing 10 times and yet each time I forget and it still bleeds all over my white, now pink sheets. I have maybe 4 sets of pink sheets and a few shirts that got tossed in with the dark colors by mistake!
