I like that. Reduces one big problem that new users typically have
users.
- is playlist editing available in the iOS Controller?
- is the Controller a native App or based on the same technology you use
now?
- is there still an option to sync devices? 
- will firmware and the server code keep OpenSource or did you switch to
closed source now?

While of course I don't like seeing Squeezeboxes to phase out, this
product (if it supports syncing) would still be a viable alternative to
me compared to Sonos.
- it has knobs (the main missing piece of a Sonos, which still is the #1
reason I don't buy into them)
- I'd still have hope, that Logitech (with reduced support and more
happy users) is successfull with this new product and over the time adds
a stereo device and a speakerless device.
Porting the firmware to the Touch would be a breeze - maybe just do a
small case, where the USB port + SD-Card port is not visible anymore.
Noone would ever ask again, if that little thing with a nice screen that
can be connected to the receiver could act as a server.
- NAS manufacturers will keep providing packages with the new server
software.
