Many thanks for the cool software pippin. One more question. When I'm in 'now playing' view and tap the tracklisting icon at the top right corner, it only show the first 8 tracks on the album and doesn't seem to be able to scroll through the remaining songs. Is there a way to see the rest of the

I currently own a Squeezebox Controller and five SB players. I would like to add an additional SBC to use downstairs so I can leave my current one upstairs. However I've been reading about Pippin's iPeng software for the new iPods and iPhones and am very curious since when I played around with

I started the poll that MC refers to. Initially (during the beta stage) I thought the iPeng was much better than the SBC, but some important changes to the SBC (re battery life and scrolling, IIRC) made it take the lead. I now use my SBC most of the time, and iPeng almost never. Much of the

iPeng is slower than the SBC when navigating the menus, an advantage with iPeng is that you have a larger touch screen and with some third party plugins this makes it easier to access some functions on iPeng compared to the SBC. If the native app will be as fast as pippin suggest, it will IMHO
