Well, if you think it's just a minijack, then go ahead. Drill a hole and stick one into it and things are good to go :) Seriously, I doubt that most of people even knows what the IR blaster is. Probably quite a few would miss the ability to use the headphones. However, this unit is half the price of the SB3, and some things have had to be deleted. Headphone jack means also headphone amp circuitry, additional power supply for it, obviously more room ... I guess, Logitech planners had to draw a line somewhere, and this was the most optimal solution in their minds. Likely because the controller will eventually get sound. BTW, out of topic, but these days there's a lot of unsettled dust around Apple's decision to charge for the software update to their iPod touch. So, some people have had a device for 6 weeks only, and they already have to pay for email and mapping software, which, as they feel, should have been there to begin with, and new users are getting for free. Now, compare that to what we get with Logitech. K -- slimkid The sound stage will open up, bass will tighten and the imaging will improve. DVD performance will also increase substantially. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ slimkid's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8881 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41813 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
