There is a fix being tested, but as it takes a couple of weeks of a Radio being off to deep discharge the battery because of the bug, this takes a while. The difference between Logitechs stance on batteries and power supplies is because of the problems there has been with battery packs over the last few years. Also this is the first product with a battery in the line up, it is an entirely Logitech product. The previous players were SlimDevices products before they were Logitech, so the official line would have been different. -- funkstar my collection: *1*x squeezebox radio *1*x squeezebox touch *1*x squeezebox boom *2*x controller, *1*x receiver *2*x sb3 (sliver/black), *1*x sb2 wired (silver) *1*x sb (black), *1*x slimp3 (with rear shield) interested in any others if you have them! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ funkstar's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2335 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=75056 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
