This, to me, has been the most sensible summation so far. I'm intrigued by the "problems" discussed here on most counts.. I _listen_ to my music downstairs, away from my computer, therfore the display on the SB3 itself is the most important thing to me - I hardly use the "server interface" - so don't give a monkeys about how quick it is. I can see where it can be useful but so far haven't had a bad experience when I need to use it. Never had a problem setting up my players - from my first SB1 through to my 2 SB3's. No difficulties despite 2 computer changes and a few reinstalls of Windoze, it just _worked_... Lets not dumb down the product for this idiot Joe Blow (?!), even friends of mine who are by no means geeks/audiophiles/etc have managed to set up theirs with little or no intervention from me. I am no fool, and realise that progress will occur with the Squeezebox's, but lets make sure it is progress rather than regression just to suit the masses. Slimdevices haven't done all that bad to now have they? For the sake of Jim (welcome BTW!); what sells the device when people see mine? The ease of accessing all your music, the playlists, random play, and that darn sexy display.... :) Nic -- DrNic ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DrNic's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=92 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31324 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
