surely u understand tho that many others do, as evident by the success
of such devices.

i say why not let them do both?

the point is they could control SS via the web browser.

well ok then...  so we know then that there are portable devices, with
color screens and with wifi and with bluetooth that can stream music
and so can receive music via SS.

thats awesome.  its just too bad slim isn't making the hardware to do
it [yet].

i know, i was just saying that in general.  its just that a SB is
obsolete or will be soon, given the facts.

not if you're in the car or at someone elses place or whatever, (or
borged).  bluetooth is MUCH easier to deal with than wifi, (assuming
its secured).

if it has storage, its a missed opportuinty to not have bluetooth.
