You're not likely to get many advance hints about what SD/Logitech have cooking. Certainly SD always kept information about future products pretty quiet until they were ready. Note that where the Roku Soundbridge misses the mark, it misses it widely, at least for some users' priorities. It wireless is only 11b, so even while it will work with an 11g network, it will have to do so in mixed mode, which can slow the network down. And it has no wired ethernet support. It also does not support any compressed lossless music formats (it only supports MP3, AAC, WMA/DRM10, WAV, and AIFF). IMO, an SB with powered speakers is a great way to go. Pairing it with the Tivoli is a nice idea. In my kitchen I hooked up an SB2 to an inexpensive ($30 on eBay) pair of Klipsch active speakers and it sounds okay, especially given all the other noise in the kitchen. And if you have the budget, you can get some very nice, compact active speakers, like the Aego and Audioengine products mentioned recently in another thread. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=17185 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
