I received my Touch today from Crutchfield. What an awesome product. It is of very sturdy construction and has a very classy look to it. The screen is a nice size and angled well to avoid glare. The touch screen is very responsive. I spent the evening using it as a controller just to get it going. After putting the kids to bed, I hooked it up to my headphone rig. It is a pleasure to use. I was worried about it being a little awkward using a touch screen, especially with my left hand, but I've gotten used to it quickly. It fits in nicely on the table next to my "man chair".
I think I have a second one in my future to replace the SB3 in our family room. It really makes a great drop-in replacement for an SB3. My wife thought the Touch had a very "updated look". As far as setup, I had absolutely NO problems. This is in tremendous contrast with the Duet. I struggled with the Duet. I persevered because it was such a cool product and was VERY useful. The Touch is a dream to use and setup right off the bat! I think Logitech made good use of the time they took to delay the release - they have a solid product here, even on it's initial release. I wish them lots of success with it. Hopefully they can get their distribution issues straightened out. As a point of clarification - I'm using it as a player and controller, not a server. I may do that at one point to tinker. -- maggior Rich --------- Setup: 2 SB3s, 4 Booms, 1 Duet, 1 Receiver, 1 Touch (on order).
