It's not my wireless network, as I had great signal strength (all green bars). None of my wireless devices that report signal strength report less than 100%. The response speed at my computer (also connected wirelessly) is noticably faster than the 770. It's not instantaneous, but it's very usable.
If I was in a situation where I could lie on my couch and control the Squeezebox, the 770 would have sufficed. The time I spend listening to music is the same time I'm cleaning the house, playing with the kids, cleaning the kids, and playing with the wife. I don't have time to play with my gadgets. They have to serve their purposes well and quickly. I have all of this stuff to make my life easier, not harder, and the Nokia 770 didn't make the cut. -- mattg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mattg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2239 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=20910 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
