I don't have a Touch. 2xSB3 and a Boom. So hadn't considered what a
Touch actually is/does. Take your point about leaving it as a player.
Are the security implications of ssh and the rather loose default (can
you change it?) root password properly documented? I can imagine a fair
few users opening up their Touch's to the net for remote streaming only
to have it hacked. It would be very easy to hack in a perl script to
send out some nice emails about Nigerian inheritance funds.
