Then it wouldn't be a Touch, would it? I was responding to the post prior to mine commenting on Logitech missing the mark coming out with a product that wasn't, in essence, an IPod Touch dedicated to the Squeezebox line. Maybe that's coming, given they've laid the groundwork with this device, but I don't blame them for not going down that path right now. Apple has a very nice device already, and Pippin has developed a quite usable app for controlling players. There are a number of things about the Controller I like better than the IPod/IPeng solution, but if I already had the IPod I wouldn't find much reason to spring for a dedicated device when I can get pretty much the same functionality with a $10 app. Now that I'm starting to get the hang of IPeng (I've been borrowing my daughter's IPod the past several weekends), I'm seriously considering springing for my own and mothballing the controller. -- GeeJay ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GeeJay's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11388 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67495 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
