Must be a quirk of our age indeed, I bought my Classic shortly after it disappeared from the Logitech webshop and still love the display as I find it easy to read. Thankfully, it hasn't faded or conked out yet as I know it has for some. I also found it a huge upgrade to the other web radio I had previously in terms of reliability, user interface and quality. I had a Duet for some time as well, it was a pain to set up initially due to old firmware still loaded onto it when it arrived, but then worked OK most of the time. I still didn't like it quite as much as the Classic, the controller has become somewhat obsolete for me since I have an Android phone and the receiver doesn't provide any advantages over the Classic, IMHO. That's why I sold it. If my Classic ever dies, I will try to get another one rather than a Touch. From what I have seen, the internal server of the Touch is too fussy to be even considered a feature and the touchscreen seems to scratch pretty easily. Also, if I had the choice between the Radio and the Boom, I would go for the Boom. I don't need a portable internet radio and prefer the looks of the Boom. That said, I agree that the biggest mistake was to try to turn a niche product for audiophiles into a mass market product, from lowering quality on the hardware side to all those unreliable half-finished plugins and gimmicks (headphone jack on the Controller, STILL-missing RSS settings on MySB, I am looking at you!). And now they have extended the server to be a general media server, which most of us already have built into the OS of our PC or NAS or gaming console or... I fail to see why I would need that.

[slim] Squeeze Server upgrade failed, how to proceed?
I'm currently running server version: 7.6.1-r33110@Wed Aug 17 18:52:34 PDT 2011 Yesterday I was logged in on the XP machine running squeeze server. A bubble on the squeeze server tooltray icon informed me that an upgrade was available. When I clicked on the bubble it started the upgrade, but immediately failed with a dialog telling me to download the VS 2010 C++ runtime, and an URL to do so with. I clicked OK (or whatever), with the intention to look at it later. Today I tried to make squeeze server update itself, and it informed me that there are no available upgrades. When I look at http://www.mysqueezebox.com/download I see that 7.7.1 is available. How should I proceed? Should I download 7.7.1 and install it? Will it be able to upgrade the existing installation and keep the settings? Or is there a different way I can persuade the existing installation to upgrade itself? Or is 7.7.1 something I should stay away from altogether? (like eg. 7.6.0 was...?)

Re: [slim] Kindle Fire vs. Nook Tablet as Controller
My wife has a Kindle Fire that was given to her as a gift. I'm sad to say that the device is a huge dissapointment. If I had bought it myself, I would have returned it. It's a real shame. I think Amazon is great - I'm a Prime member. I have had a Kindle Keyboard for a year now and still love it! My wife has one too. But they blew it with the Fire. If it worked well as a reader, I'd say I understood that - but it's less functional as a reader than the Kindle Keyboard!! I'm tremendously annoyed by the fact that they don't allow you to get apps from the Andriod Marketplace. It means anything I got on my Xoom from the andriod marketplace can't be put on my Fire. Sure, there are probably ways to do it involving rooting and stuff, but I'm not going there. I can't say how easy it would be to use the nook tablet, but certainly the Fire makes it diffcult to use it as a squeezebox controller. Holding the Fire in my hand I have to say I like the size and form factor. The screen looks great too. That just makes it even more frustrating! -- maggior Rich - Setup: 2 SB3s, 4 Booms, 1 Duet, 1 Receiver, 1 Touch, iPeng on iPod Touch, SqueezeCommander on Xoom.

Re: [slim] Kindle Fire vs. Nook Tablet as Controller
After researching it, we bought a Nook Tablet and love it. The only advantage I've read to rooting it is to access the Android Marketplace directly, but even without rooting you can access the Amazon Market for more apps and better prices, including free. Beyond that, I've taken apps I have on my Android phone and emailed the apk files to myself, which I then open and load directly onto the Nook. So I don't see the lack of Android Marketplace as a killer.

Re: [slim] Kindle Fire vs. Nook Tablet as Controller
I rooted my Kindle Fire after Amazon pushed out the 6.2.1 OS update. I then installed the Android Market app and have installed several apps from the market. My understanding is that many apps can be sideloaded onto the KF or installed via SlideMe. To my knowledge, the Kindle Fire has never been marketed as a tablet, but instead as a device to consume media. I never thought I'd want one but after discovering that the Kindle Fire can be both a reading device and an Android tablet, I am sold on it. -- TimT TimT's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22971 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92754 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

I honestly don't remember if being rooted was required, or whether the SB app could be installed simply by sideloading (which is a bit different). With the initial release, the NT could load some things via sideloading, and if you wanted to take the next step you could root and then do things like access Market. I had my NT rooted so early in the game I'm not sure. Be that as it may, if you were to buy a NT right now it would probably have version 1.4.1 installed on it, which is the one they just released. If that's the case you would have few choices - I don't think you could get sideloading to work without rooting, and you'd have to root to be able to get anything off Android Market.

JJZolx;681184 Wrote: Is it necessary to keep the Tablet's OS updated? Can't it just be left alone? A fair question, JJ. That's what I'm doing right now. The only risk is if any of the content unique to a given tablet (in the case of NT, the BN store and Netflix HD) are of interest to the user, and if they make changes to those features that cause them to stop working if you don't update the OS. In my case neither of those features is of any import so I can hold tight. But others' MMV. What will make the difference for me is if the XDA team can't get 2ndinit or alternate OSes bootable on the NT. In that case it really does become a dead end. Live with a rooted 1.4.0 or 1.4.1 on it and be left behind as newer and better tablet environments become available, or sit and wait for someone to root the next version when it comes out (and so on)? Neither is useful for any reasonable long haul. Part of the reason the original Nook did so well was that it was open enough to keep the XDA community interested in doing stuff with (to) it. If the limitations I've just described are not eliminated, IME the developer community will never be as large as it was for the original. -- tonyptony tonyptony's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3397 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92754 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Basically alternating non-stop for 1hr between Can't connect and a good time. During that episode, I was able to stream a video via the network bridge. In the end, I pulled the power on the SB. That was 24hrs ago and the SB has not blinked since. So ... Upping the priority on the server process seems to help prevent the problem from arising. (Why?)
