Indeed, especially since the best way to learn to take pictures is to take tons of them, money is no object!

It sounds great and it changed the way I listen to music and how much I listen to music... The catch with the SB4 is ... how the heck do you improve on the SB3? Video out doesn't interest me, UPNP doesn't either... I don't really have a wishlist item other than "something I can use when I have to mow" (ie, the squeezebox boombox)... and I'm not sure that's really feasible.... Mike, I think, asked a good question here the other day: what would it take to make the SB worth twice as much? I really don't know the answer to that... improved software for 'average' people maybe? But then, I don't know if 'average' people would really be into it anyway... music afficianado's (not quite the same as audiophiles, but just as annoying :P) are not normal, and that's really the market.. my parents would never want a Squeezebox of any shape and they're reasonably competent technology wise (they call me to complain about windows, knowing I won't help them, but they just wanted to say how much it sucks) and I don't have a clue how to reach that segment. -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41476 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
