Damager, I am very nearly in your camp. My Wife is of the 'throw that damn thing away and give me my wave radio back' school, but I have stuggled through and now have a system which is stable - most of the time. I have recommended squeeze proucts (the Duet unfortunately) to non technical friends (3) who have now all given up on the system and have it gathering dust in cupboards.
As an aging EE graduate who cut his teeth programming PDP-11s in binary from the front panel switches I have enjoyed learning about TCP/IP and wandering around my house with NetStumbler, but I think that raises real questions about whether the products are really ready for the mainstream. For those who care, my experience is: Transporter (wired) - no problems SB3 (wireless) - occasional problems Duet (2 of them, wireless) hopeless until the last couple of releases, still not great Boom (2 of them wireless) - occasional problems Given the new products that Logitech seem to have in development (Radio, Touch) it does look as if their engineering smarts are being dragged away from software developing and fixing for existing products and are working on the new stuff. Development of the whole new database back end must also be a significant distraction. This is unfortunate, as most forums on the web(correctly in my opinion) describe the squeeze products as innovative, but really only suitable for geeks. I do think Logitech should focus on getting their existing line stable. My next door neighbour has Sonos. In my opinion, it isn't cutting edge, looks clunky and has limited options. He had it professionaly installed, and says he has never had a single problem. My Wife would drop squeeze and get Sonos in a heartbeat. I just keep hoping that the next software release will fix all my problems........ -- Andy8421 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Andy8421's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16846 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67040 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
