This type of thing can be EXTREMELY frustrating. You have this super cool thing that is more addictive than heroin and now its busted, right before your party. Yes, tony is pissing off all the UNPAID folks who are trying to help him, and that is not a wise thing to do. I’m glad to see the Dean gave Tony a phone number to call. I think Tony should call it and work through the issues with a LIVE support person.
I love my SB, and like all of you, I am fairly tech savy. When I got the email from Sean a couple days ago about the SW upgrade, I was pumped, because I have been wanting a solution to synch up Softsqueeze with my SB. (I use FLAC almost excusively, so I am all too familiar with the timing problems) Anyway, I figured I would look in on the old message board before doing the upgrade, and boy am I glad I did. I surely will not upgrade to 6.2.2 until the root cause of tonymuffin’s problems are documented. Slim Devices needs to be very concerned about these things. It seems to me the Squeezebox business case is centered on word-of-mouth communication. I know I bought one based on the recommendation of a co-worker. I also have influenced 3 other people to buy one. There is no significant advertising for it and there are no (or at least very few) major retail outlets for it. All the business is based on word-of-mouth. Tonymuffin clearly loves his SBes too. He’s got 3 for cryin’ out loud. If tonymuffin had NOT upgraded to 6.2.2, he would be like the rest of us; showing it off to all his friends at his party tonight. But since he DID upgrade to 6.2.2, his whole system came down and now he’s going to be telling all his friends how he’s spent 800 bucks on these pieces of junk. That’s not the type of word-of-mouth Slim Devices needs.
