4 This is only true if you live in the US in the rest of the world Touch is more expensive than SB3 on logitech's own websites !? They apparently failed to coordinate this marketing effort worldwide. In general Touch cost more than SB3 , but there is an exception in the US they have the same price. Soo can we please stop saying that it is the same price SB3 & Touch, this is in most cases not the truth. I've seen logitech employees stating this untruth on this forum as it were a fact. I'm not whining about the price difference EU vs US (we have other treads for that ) only the relative price SB3 vs Touch. visiting some of logitechs EU sites, I can see that in general an Touch is 20% to 25% more than an SB3 that compared to what the SB3 cost in the same place. That said I don't think it's expensive considering audio performance and its other abilities it's a god deal anyway. I would get one for the 24/96 digital out and more native formats meaning less transcoding done on my server. And it is an exciting platform i think we will see many interesting things from logitech or third party developers in the future. -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- No it can NOT be controlled with iTunes.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67495 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
