This is going off-topic ... but... 1. I love my SB3 with the VFD, it's quite beautiful. It's very bright, and with the text set to LARGE, I can easily see it from across the room. I do wish that it could display more information sometimes, but I'm willing to give that up, as I can easily use my laptop and the web interface when I'm doing something that requires more information than what fits on the SB screen. 2. I agree the LCD would be a good choice for the remote, as I'd really want the cost of that to be kept as low as possible, and VFD is also simply too power-hungry to use on a remote relying on batteries. I'd also like it to be full color displaying album art and such. LCD and OLED displays are coming down in price so much, I'm sure a remote capable of interacting with the Slim web interface could be built economically. Unfortunately I fear that it'd be priced to high (no matter how inexpensively it could be built) for me to justify the purchase though (at least initially) ... because that's how the electronics indurstry is. -- jeffluckett ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jeffluckett's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28821 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
