If they get a large number of returns due to the registration process they might reconsider their stand in a later version of the radio firmware. I am also concerned about the heavy reliance on mysb.com for the use of these new products. Many of us will want to use them for a decade or longer but how long will the site be maintained?

I don't even recommend that this be user controllable, just make it so that when the alarm is going off the brightness is minimum 25%, etc. For me it's not a big deal to have separate controlled brightness for all the different player states you mention. -- jmpage2 jmpage2's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=70526 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Ouch. About $1,500 bucks. I will say that I had about 300 songs in DRM that I had purchased one off over the years and recently did the itunes plus upgrade to get the nonDRM version.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] 2 questions about album art
1. Because people complained that the cover art was so small and left so much of the screen unused, so they enlarged it. Unfortunately the landscape orientation of the display is not really suitable to display a square image together with two rows of text above and a status bar below, you will always have either unused space or the edges cut off. It should be configurable to what you like better. 2. Someone has reported a similar behaviour of his Controller, maybe this is a related bug? -- usch usch's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33389 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=71290 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Mind you, when there was a page for it on the UK site, it gave an error when we tried to pre-order, and the "find a local dealer" button claimed that a UK postcode wasn't a valid zipcode! It's hard to have any confidence in any of the Logitech sites at the moment. It seems that orders get through despite the online shops - rather than because of them! I'm hoping the battery re-appears very soon, as I really want that. I'm also hoping that my pre-order for the Touch doesn't get cancelled as I put it through before the 20% discount code expired at the end of last month.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Alarm only works when connected to mysqueezebox?
My alarm did something unusual today so I thought it would be fun to tack it onto this thread. Last night I changed my Alarm 1 to a new time, 2 hours earlier than it had been set to. This alarm plays back a playlist of 2,000 tracks and has been working fine. This morning the alarm fired at the correct time, but it did not ramp up the volume as it is programmed to do. Instead, it just kind of made a noise and then all of a sudden was playing at the full alarm volume. To add to the weirdness, I noticed I could not make out the time on the alarm. It seems as though the ambient light sensor was stuck in "cave" mode and was dimmed almost completely. It probably wouldn't be a bad idea to add an enhancement wherein when the alarm fires it puts the radio on a pre-determined brightness setting so that it will be more visible in a dark room. -- jmpage2 jmpage2's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=70526 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
