My experience with digital streaming goes back to the Rio/Dell Digital
Audio Receiver. No sync, no internet radio back then. It came with
software versioned 1.03, which never changed in the years that I
struggled with those things. 

The Slim Devices hardware is great, certainly, but the I think the
attention to the software is what really sets it apart. Although some
here complain about bugs, dropouts, slowness, etc., I am not sure that
the success stories are so vivid. Also, I am not sure that the
contribution of the user-base to the software development is fully
appreciated either (I'll take the opportunity to applaud the Nokia
skin, iPeng, SuperDateTime, among others that I rely on daily). 

I have had my share of issues, but these have been solved. How many
other hardware manufacturers do that so consistently? I have had gps
devices, pocket PCs, phones, computers, even cars, all of which with
issues that absolutely never receive attention from the manufacturer. I
am always surprised when I see complaints about overly frequent updates
to software and firmware here. 

So yes, count me in as well. Great products. Ordered my Duet yesterday.
Waiting for the shipping email.
