The sad reality is that some products are buggier than others. I've had a Radio since they were introduced so have been through all of the upgrades and fixes.
I like the size, appearance, sound quality and feel of the product. Connectivity? Well, I put that in the flaky but tolerable area. It should be better, but have little hope it ever will be. Unfortunately, the "standard" for connectivity was set by broadcast radio 80 or 90 years ago. You turned on your table radio and it stayed on. Sure, your radio went silent if the radio station had a problem or the sound was poor if the weather got particularly bad, but it always came back by itself when things at the other end cleared up. These days the Radio isn't too bad if I'm home listening. If the internet stream interrupts for whatever reason, it may come back on its own, but often the "play" button must be pushed again. If one is counting on the Radio to simply play all day without attention (we often leave ours on while at work or out of the house) then it still isn't very reliable. The odds of it still playing when we come home are pretty low, and we've got a very solid DSL connection. But I don't consider the above a "rant" - just an acceptance that things are what they are and rather unlikely to change. -- mlsstl ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mlsstl's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9598 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88876 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
