Hi there!
I have commented on this before but it seems the discussion was maybe
lost. I can _not_ read the display across a normal sized room. I use my
iPhone to control the Touch now but seeing that there is lots of room on
the display in most cases I don't see why it is impossible to implement

Hi,
Does anybody know how to include Asian letter to the Touch?
I tagged all my music with UTF8 and it shows perfectly in the browser,
but the Touch only shows a rectangular where their should be a letter.
For the Controller it was only necessary to change the font. How do I
do it for Touch?
The applet can be installed, but not the helper that you can use to
create your own style screen saver no :(
The best you can do is toggle trough the now playing screens with the
ir remote until you find the one without a cover image, thats as big as
it get's i'm afraid.
You have noted that the
I have not done it myself, but it should be very similar to the

They are very similar software-wise .

Thank you very much for finding this. However, there is a complicating

The switcher that came with the SB3 was very poor. It radiated a lot of
noise, AND sent a lot of noise back down into the AC main as well.
There was some going into the SB3 as well, but my findings were that
the radiated noise and the noise sent into the mains was usually far
more of a problem.
