Is it too much to expect that when I turn off my SqueezeBox that it will STAY OFF!!!! In the middle of the night last night I was very rudely awoken by a bright green light and I cant tell you how annoyed I was when I discovered the cause a message from Slim Devices on the SqueezeBox. Initially I was simply SCARED TO DEATH because its just plain SPOOKY that this happened, and just plain ANNOYING to realize that this could happen. Its a complete violation of my rights and privacy for Slim Devices to come into my house, remotely, in the middle of the night, and to deliberately WAKE ME UP, just to tell me that their damn server is down for maintenance! This is the stuff of lawsuits. For Gods sake, I couldnt even turn it off with the remote! I had to unplug it from the back! Flashing a message to units that are already turned on that the server is down is one thing, but this is ridiculous! A discrete email would have been sufficient, but even that isnt really necessary. But to wake me in the middle of the night! Listen, if I win the lottery dont wake me in the middle of the night to tell me! If my mom dies dont wake me in the middle of the night to tell me! If New York is destroyed by terrorists dont wake me in the middle of the night to tell me! If youre doing maintenance on your equipment dont freakin wake me in the middle of the night to tell me!!!!! Did anybody else experience this nightmare last night, or just me? So what am I supposed to do, unplug the thing before I go to bed every night? I cant simply move it because its in a great place, close to the computer and I can see the display from bed, which, until now, had been a GOOOD idea. Maybe...I should return it and get the new Nokia N800 instead, which has the same EXACT form factor, is even a bit smaller, receives internet radio WIRELESSLY, has an alarm clock feature with snooze, let's me surf the web, AND has 2 built in speakers! I'll bet THEY won't be waking me in the middle of the night!!! Are you reading this, SLIM DEVICES? Take notice!
