seen the pics, but not seen it in action...
to be honest i hate the web interface currently.
it's just not as repsonsive or friendly as it should be.
not sure if the 770 is the same...
i just see no reason why there aren't more decent clients out there..
I'm totally fine with the existing remote, and pretty okay with the web interface, so this is mainly a curiosity question:
I see a lot of whinging about interface, and I see a lot of answers. Is there something lacking about Moose, SlimRemote, SqueezeBoxPlayer Widget, &c, &c? Do the complaining people just not know about these, or do they try them and find them lacking? Maybe they're not acceptable because they're not SDI-provided? I haven't used any of them as the existing remote is excellent, but I've been reading this mailing list for years, and it's like the right hand needs an introduction to the left hand.
This is separate from the remote question, as the difference between a lame PDA/Internet tablet solution and a dedicated remote with super functionality is clear. It's not clear that the people asking for the super duper remote realize how expensive it will be if/when it happens, though... we're talking $300 worth of hardware minimum IMHO, plus software production costs. Even if SDI decides to open source the resulting firmware, they'd still be on the hook for producing the first release, and that'll cost a lot of Transporters.
