Well, but if something doesn't meet your needs today, I'd have a hard time recommending it because it might meet your needs in a year; I mean, you can always buy it then, when it actually does what you want, you know? That said, it's worth emphasizing to people who are new to Slim Devices that their track record in terms of realizing potential and fixing bugs and adding new capabilities is truly phenomenal. Yeah, their initial releases of new capability are unpolished and rough, but they WILL keep iterating and get it right, and then make it better than they ever promised initially. I have no intention of buying the Duet, but while that's largely because it doesn't match up well with my usage model (sit close enough to the AV center to read the display now, use a universal remote to control all devices), it's also very much because my SB2 is so much better now than it was when I first bought it. Even my original SB1 is way better than it was at first, due to free upgrades (Slimserver enhancements) and paid ones (adding the G screen when that became available). -- mkozlows ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mkozlows's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=62 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41805 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
