As for the memory: Your SB is only ever 'off' when you physically switch it off. When youpress the power button on the remote, it just stops playing and shows something different on the screen. That display (even the clock) is driven by the server. Dumping a load of stuff out of memory would mean there could be a very iritating wait for the server to get itself sorted out before you are able to do anything useful with your SB. As it stands, picking up the remote and using it should be pretty much instant. -- funkstar ------------------------------------------------------------------------ funkstar's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2335 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=45784 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
