Well the grind is faked since it's force-feedback. That could change. Knobs dont interest me since it would mean violating one of my basic rules in life: Plant Butt On Couch. Getting up to fiddle with things, regardless of how neat they may be, violates that. That's why I keep looking at Harmony remotes... and (*cough*) it would be nice if Logitech would make one optimized for SB. Something with roughly the form factor of a Nokia770, but that just controlled the SB. A bit of custom code on the controller and matching code in Slimserver and it could be quite slick.
that's an idea I could get behind :) It would be broken quickly in my house, but I like the idea and it matches up with quite a lot of demand from the folks in this discussion group :) -- "I spent all me tin with the ladies drinking gin, So across the Western ocean I must wander" -- traditional _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
