I use Telcanto on a IPAQ 3715 to control SlimServer - it's terrific. The fee is per-user, so if I want to have a couple more wifi controllers, I don't pay again.
Because it's an app not a browser it's a great deal faster for browsing albums/genres/artists and expanding to see underlying tracks. It seems to make SlimServer respond much more quickly (than via a browser) for initiating playback, pausing etc. It displays artwork nicely. I'm waiting for a DAB USB tuner so that I can add playlists with digital-only stations, but I can already access internet-radio. It supports multiple SBs (very useful) & multiple SlimServers (probably not necessary), making it easy to synchronize devices or play different music into different rooms. Planning to have 6+ SB2's around my new house. As a side benefit, it also has Nevo remote control on it, so I can work all my IR controlled equipment also. My wife also likes the fact that our contacts, email & calendar also synch to the IPAQ - now all I need is an IPAQ that can act as my home phone, perhaps by leveraging Vonage or similar. There's only one 'skin', so colour scheme is what you get. -- netim3 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
