Re: [slim] Community Funded Squeezebox Replacement - Would you be interested?
Still following this exciting thread with great interest. Given the progress that has been made in what seems a very short space of time i'm now thinking about taking the plunge and buying the Wandboard (although my wife won't approve of yet another "gadget") as this looks like it really is going to take off given a). the wonderful level of commitment shown by those that have the skills to make this possible and, b). the level of interest that has been expressed by those that can't really help on the technical side but are eager to get their hands on the fruits of JS & Co's labour. I guess all I wanted to say was thanks for your efforts so far guys and count me in when one of these boards becomes available to purchase - i'll be right at the front of the queue!

Re: [slim] Updating Squeezebox Radio to Smart Radio
I'm sorry but there's no way I'll go this route - I've LMS, an SB radio and a couple of receivers all working beautifully, I was after a Touch but given Logitechs actions I've bought my last ever Logitech product, no more mice, keyboards etc, we had a Logitech reseller trying to push the products into the company I work for but I spoke with our purchasing exec and put her off the idea. All done and dusted - they lost my custom the day they dropped the SB platform. As you can probably tell I'm still pretty mad about it - dumb, dumb decision made by some clown who really has no idea what they had. w7r's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=26992 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97242 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Guys, I'm very happy to have found this thread, and I'm with Guido F. on this, cant help on the tech - way over my head but happy to be a "dummy" on the Gen2. +1 I'll certainly be following this closely!
