I think that is more Logitech's fault for not sending out good
documentation.

The LCD can display photos from SD cards or USB drives or from apps
like Flickr or Facebook, but *for $300, I expect more than that.*
There's no video playback, for instance, which seems like a waste of
the big, bright display. *More importantly, there are no built-in
speakers*, here, like
Well... from reports I've read around (AVS forums) the main weakness is
the display, when used from a distance. Sitting from 10' I gather that
would have me squinting all the times to try and read song titles...
I think that the display should have been larger, considering they
opted for LCD.
I emailed the author of the review but I doubt this will change
anything.

He's right. What is the point of having a touch screen if it supposed to
be used with an A/V system which is probably IR controlled? The SB3 or
Transporter are much more appropriate and easier to read than the SB
Touch and the SB Radio and SB Boom, with their built in speakers, are
much more

To me it just seems like a touch screen would be way more suited to the
Radio so that I could actually use it. To each their own though I
guess - I'm sure the Touch fits some consumers setups/needs perfectly.

I do see your point, but I respectfully disagree.
Touch is packed with features and options to be used in multiple
different usage scenarios.

I don't particularly like it when a source component absolutely requires
that I have the remote in my hand to make use of it. At least with the
SB Touch, I can still use it if my remote has slipped behind a sofa
cushion or gone to wherever remotes go when you most need them...

IMO, the SB Radio would be better suited to a bedside headphone rig as
it could double as an alarm clock (if the alarm was reliable!). I
think the same applies to most desktop situations. I do see the
argument for it to be wall mounted although there are probably better
options...

I looked at it quickly.
Seems to miss the point that it has a high-quality DAC and compliments
a good sound system.

That is a really horrible review. I think the reviewer spent about 5
minutes reading the specs on the box and about another 5 minutes
listening with some ear buds.
What is this comment? I know reviewers try to have some complaint with
a product and the Touch is not perfect but this is not some
I'd love to see the press kits Logitech sends out with evaluation units.
This guy clearly doesn't understand Squeezebox at all, but I wonder if
Logitech marketing isn't making things worse.
