No big deal, just don't buy into DRM.

I played with it in a store once. It is pretty nice. Big advantage is 
that it saves you from having to read the display from a long distance. 
Now, the SB3 display is great and pretty large, but if you have a large 
room it's still hard or even impossible to read. So if I want to control 
my SB from the dinner table I'll have to use my laptop at the moment 
which is not ideal. I hope the Nokia E90 I'm buying next will work well 
with the Nokia 770 skin so I'll be able to use that. Keyboard only, 
though, so it won't be ideal either.

I can imagine that would be a problem for some people, but I'm not one 
of them...
