As I stated before, I have a very stable system but with that said, I
too believe that many would not be able to install and configure the
system unless they had some technical know how.

Perhaps as wireless technology matures even further many issues will be
resolved.  Sonos has their own Mesh Network so other than the occasional
interference with things like cordless phones it is pretty good and is
dedicated for the use with their equipment.  The Slim / Logitech uses
good old wifi which in most cases is probably used by other devices in
the house such as a laptop or iThingy.

So my install is stable, the wife and children love it and have not
issues using it which is fantastic.

But in reality, if one wanted to really get the mass numbers of people
using this system some packaging needs to be done.  Here are my
thoughts.

- SqueezeCenter Server (HW with SW preloaded and configured)
- Easy to use Ripping and Tagging pre installed
- Packaged Wifi Router Option
- Pre Installation check list including ways to test wifi signal
strength before trying to get things to work.
- Good and easy to use trouble shooting tools
- Logitec to purchase iPeng, rebrand and own to insure long term
support and new feature offerings.
- Consider dropping Controller or doing some redesign no the HW.

I am sure that there are other things but this is just from a person
who is very happy with my current system.
