Yeah, that statement puzzled me too.  I have a couple of Radios, a
Touch, a Boom and an SB3, and have subsets of them synced all the time. 
They work fine.  One of the Radios regularly gets moved from the
bedroom, where it syncs as half of a stereo pair, and the patio, where
it syncs to play the same as the rest of the house.

Two minor issues that I've noted though.
i) If I have a mixed playlist with crossfade enabled, I occasionally
notice that one of the players drops a few samples at the crossover
between tracks.  I assume that the syncing mechanism tries to take
advantage of the silence between tracks to adjust the sync precision,
but when crossfade is enabled there is no silence.
ii) Sometimes when starting up a number of players the first track is
completely out of sync - half a second or so - but this disappears when
the second track starts.  I can also fix it by hitting the 'back' arrow
on one of the players to make the first track restart.

I had never considered that either of these issues might be down to one
of the SqueezeOS players.  I don't think they are, but haven't done any
careful testing.  Even if they are they are so minor that I wouldn't
give them a second thought when considering a new purchase.
