CardinalFang, M<ost mobile phones are eventually ship accepted by an operator which will allow concessions on a number of bugs to go through as long as they don't affect the customer in too major a way. In fact, this same bug list might be considered unacceptable to another operator. Typical problems might be incorrect rendering of content from another operator by the WAP browser, or receiving a call whilst taking a picture, or slow phonebook with particular types of SIMs, etc.
I'd say the average firmware release for a given product (be it mobile phone, etc) has many bugs, most of which most of the users won't see. But, some will, some of the time. The SB2 has quite a lot going on; it has to live in different wireless network conditions, it's dealing with many different types of content, and is connected to a very fully features server. Coming in as a first time user with SlimServer 6.1.1, I found it to be quite a remarkable out of box experience - it found my WMA folder and my iTunes collection just fine, and was up and running days before my SB2 arrived. Yes, I have connection issues, but my problem looks to be quite isolated, it's almost the kind of problem I would expect, whoever had made the product. So I guess what I'm saying is that as a piece of consumer electronics kit, if it isn't quite 'there', it's definitely very very near it. -- Gatchers _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
