What a load of crap. If anything, a cynic might say the extra paraphernalia was added to increase the perceived value and justify the price point. The idea of having a front panel was good. It's not necessary, but it can be handy. I can certainly see them on future Squeezeboxes besides the Boom. Execution is another matter... I think it missed on the Transporter, is much better on the Boom, and can be improved further. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34494 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
