Yes AirPlay is derived from the older AirTunes. There was room for improvement, I guess we can suppose that if Denon et al. decide to pay the tax and integrate the adhoc chip, either the protocol is much better than before (it can do video, so things have changed), or this is cheaper than a physical iPod dock. Besides, Logi hasn't been sooo much into audio features lately, more into color screens and facebook applets... Methinks this Airtunes thing is an issue. -- epoch1970 Daily dose delivered by: 2 SB Classic (fw 130), 1 SB Boom (fw 50) SqueezeCenter 7.3.4 (Debian 5.0) with plugins: ContextMenu, SaverSwitcher by Peter Watkins Server Power Control by Gordon Harris WeatherTime by Martin Rehfeld IRBlaster by Gwendesign (Felix) FindArt, CDplayer by bpa BBC iPlayer, SwitchPlayer by Triode PowerSave by Jason Holtzapple TrackStat by Erland Isaksson. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ epoch1970's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16711 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81670
