The mouse works in most spots, but you are better served by using the arrow keys for navigation. To get to the playlist, hit the right arrow from the NP screen. Also the ] key will jump directly there (if you favor the fps approach). this is probably the link you want as a reference... http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/SqueezePlay To answer your question about the point-and-click type of interface, the end goal is something that can give a nice user experience from the desktop. However, we are pretty much laser-beamed focused on new hardware releases right now. I'm not going to make any promises on desktop software right now, because I really doubt it's going to be made a priority any time soon. I find the desktop software right now to be a) and excellent development platform and b) a really nice way to get a feel for the software UI before buying. It's not a polished product for general consumption. The effort hasn't been afforded to it. cheers, #!/ben -- bklaas Logitech Developer: Squeezeplay/SqueezeOS/SqueezeboxController/SqueezeCenter Community Developer: Nokia770Skin http://www.last.fm/user/bklaas/ 'KHAAAN!'
