Hi, first of all congrats on the new hardware. Been following the development for a while, and it is all very exiting news.
Question: Does the controller work over normal TCP/IP ? So that it can connect from any location ? Can it connect directly to the squeezenetwork ? Is tunneling over SSH possible? Thanks for any answers. Ramblings: I too think the price of the controller is a bit steep. But. 1. Mobile phones are priced very differently, and the least one should do is compare with the total cost, i.e. including mandatory 6/12/... month subscription. 2. Most phones, and in particular the OS they are running have HUGE turnovers. 3. That the hardware is advanced does not alone justify the price for an end user, and the argument that functionality could/can/will be extended by the community is dubious to say the least... 4. But think about what you are getting (I hope). A unique graphical color interface, presumably optimized and fully integrated with the rest of the slim-systems and specifically designed for the purpose. The nerds among us will always have this naggering thought that our symbian/iphone/embedded linux/pda could do the job just as well. But the fact is that currently none other alternative will provide what the new controller does in terms of "system completeness". Whether that's worth 300$ or not compared to more home-made but functionality wise equivalent solutions is the question that I am asking myself.
