Dude, Jim has already edited your highly inaccurate post to explain
quite clearly that I own a squeezebox. It's a brand new retail unit,
purchased in a store. I took lots of photos of it as I opened the box
so I could show people how nice the packaging is - Sonos by comparison
just ships in a solid printed cardboard box and polystyrene.

I'm half tempted to get home tonight and get Mrs. Jaffa to take a photo
of me with it holding an "i love nonreality" banner just so you get the
message.

I haven't knowingly misrepresented old data to mislead people away from
the Squeezebox - indeed, I took the feedback from my last review of the
product and realised that maybe the short time I had to play with the
product before it's UK launch was insufficient and I hadn't got the
most out of it; so I went and got a retail Duet for a proper owner
experience.

I regularly have visitors to my house who love my Sonos system and
enquire about getting one for themselves. Often the entry costs are
well out of their range and something like the Duet could be ideal for
them. As I'm an IT geek, they look to me for product recommendations;
but if they can't afford them I am no use. For example, if I get this
Duet system functioning as he needs, I may sell it to my brother who is
currently playing back his ripped music using his Archos which doesn't
have a display on the remote control.

Thanks again to those forum members who have helped me remove my Sonos
tinted spectacles and see Squeezebox in it's natural light.

Edit to add: Site moderators, please feel free to lock this thread at
your convenience. The initial problem has been discussed and an outline
solution proposed. There's no more value to come from this thread, I'll
start a new one in the beta section if 7.0.1 doesn't fix my issue.
