Thanks for your advice gents, much appreciated.
Today I bought a system that meets my needs pretty well. I've got 7
days to put it through it's paces before I can't return it anymore
(based on simply not liking it anyways).

I realise that the good folks at Slim Devices have quite a lot of things

Hi,
I wonder if anyone who had a SB1 then had a SB2 has found dropouts to have
dropped out of the picture? I know the bandwidth of G is much greater than B
- but does that translate into a much more reliable signal with no dropouts?
I have my computer in the garage and the SB1 in the floor above

This is a bit off topic, but I was wondering if anyone has placed
multiple antennas around their house and routed them back to a
central point as a way of providing WiFi coverage instead of putting

My SB1 would play compressed files fine - and often lossless but not
always and would have dropout problems on wireless - and even on wired
connection on lossless files.
The SB2 is 100% reliable over both wireless (even 11b) and wired.

Sorry, I didn't see that information in the Sunncomm page. The Register

Three things work together here:
bigger buffer == more capacity to cope with interruptions or
temporary dips in throughput
faster wireless == more bandwidth available
FLAC compression == less bandwidth required _and_ effective doubling
