My wife also loves the SBC, and only ever uses it or the Touch's touchscreen to control our SBs. Even though she was the first in the family to have an iThing. Our SBCs are rarely out of their cradles for very long, and because of the slow-to-wake-up syndrome I've gravitated toward using my iPad or iPod touch when listening on our deck or on the sofa of our living room. And speaking of battery drain, the iPod touch's goes down pretty damn fast when the wifi is turned on.
Nothing high-end, but music anywhere I want it.
