As much as I admire Pippin and the good work he's done, after using iPeng on a first generation itouch, I think the controller has a much cleaner UI and more responsive. I know the controller's had its problems, but so does ipeng or any other aspect of SqueezeX.
Maybe its different on a newer device, but the ipeng UI can be slow, and I haven't warmed up to its UI conventions as much as everyone else. That said I'm glad I bought it as I do use it more a home and, in conjunction with vpn from my router, I can stream remotely to my ipod, which is very nice. Also ipeng is the only UI, I know of, that shows you an active view of all your devices/streams in one area. Lastly, I don't think one developer can make the difference at this point. Hiring Pippin won't make up the fact that the controller hardware was under spec'ed and Squeezeplay is still a work in progress. The problems people are having are more systemic. -- sander ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sander's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10737 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72308 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
