yet one more option would be to offer a multi-tiered way to remotely access your SB2. this might help SB2's entrance into the mainstream market (if those are slimdevices plans!). i like vs804017's use of a hand-held device an awful lot, and am waiting for nokia to release the 770. being just a bit of a linux/unix zealot, i couldn't use a pda or a hand held that runs windows. :-) i'm sure the HP faithfully does the deed, if only they would have used HPUX instead of windows ... and the nokia uses debian linux as its embedded O/S ... but, that's not the point. if slimdevices could package the SB2 with any of a variety of remote access devices, that might help out a lot towards ease of use for the consumer. the current remote would be standard, and from there you could upgrade to a pda, nokia 770, a hacked SONOS remote, etc. if the remote access boxes were supported by slimdevices (perhaps pre-loaded with software, or configured somehow), that might level out the feature-for-feature comparison with SONOS, or the next device that has an even COOLER access method! which you then have to have ... ! best, -sherm -- shermoid "you are only young once, but you can be immature forever" "life is uncertain; eat dessert first" - anonymous please visit my mcintosh website: http://alumni.cse.ucsc.edu/~sherman _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
