My thoughts exactly. That's why I rushed and bought a Classic after finding about Squeezeboxes and seeing Touch press release. I read tons of horror stories about Controller so I decided to stay away from it. My bad experience with recently acquired Radio makes me to send it back and buy another Boom. I think all the color LCD interface is more of a distraction from music listening experience and in many ways downgrade in user experience department. -- unclemat ------------------------------------------------------------------------ unclemat's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33372 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69660 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
