Of course, if there are no batteries in it, then its not intended to be used as if it had :) For me the point is that it appears to have a format which could make it suitable for that kind of use. But as others have said, it might not be feasible to power the thing on batteries without sacrificing sound-quality while at the same time keeping it portable. So I guess we'll just have to wait for this coldfusion technology to stabilise...

My, and many other common mobiles, can function as a wireless accesspoint using hsdpa to pull down data. That's sufficient for even high bitrate mp3. So for me, batteries could have added significant realworld value to the Boom. -- bhaagensen ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bhaagensen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7418 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=50760 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
