Looks like a lot of wasted space to me: http://www.myway.de/ElectronicFreak/IR_715.html Limited to WMA & MP3 playback? Does it even have digital outs (all specs are in German)? Limited to UPNP utilizing WMP or iTunes? No access to online music services? 5x bigger than an SB3? And for a price close to the SB3?? No thanks. :) I could see adding a USB connection to the Boom (which does have a line in) as it is designed as a portable all-in-one device. But for any dedicated box like the SB3 I think it is unnecessary as your server must be close by so just add that USB device to the server computer. I'd rather SD spend time coming up with a USB "Quick Scan" module within SC7 with a separate USB menu item for quick Plug & Play USB usage on their current hardware offerings. :) -- toby10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=62837 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
