The Touch and Radio might, but I won't hold my breath. Universal remote access without a VPN is nice, but its sure not a mass-market requirement. Agree the the rendezvous capabilities of IPv6 are great, and will make TV and movies much more interesting. But I don't see a need for audio, it so low in bandwidth requirements. I just don't see it happening in the US because the ISPs are dragging their feet. -- pfarrell Pat http://www.pfarrell.com/music/slimserver/slimsoftware.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pfarrell's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=200 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53800 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
