I just had a play with the Sonos Remote in a hifi shop yesterday, and although i am impressed with the neatness, UI, and functionality of it, there are still a few things putting me off selling my slim devices and getting a sonos.
I really hope they get working on a 'sonos' style remote. if they're catering for the audiophile market, they should soon start catering for the more mainstream audio market too, and that means having something thats easy to use, fast and... well, pretty...which the current solutions don't seem to be... i think the sonos remote is just about perfect, needs more horsepower i think as menu navigation seemed a little slow... (and the screen could have been brighter) actually i think the best thing would be that if slimdevices did make one, it'd probably be even better than the sonos one (and be open source too - OpenDoom on your SlimRemote anyone?) the best thing about the Slimserver is its open architecture, so people can develop what they want for it, i'd sorely miss my audioscrobbler etc. if i went sonos, but that remote still has that 'gotta have it' appeal... -- gb115b ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gb115b's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1781 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27824 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
