No need to recall any units, on first setup a Touch will download and install the latest available software version. The problem is that the latest beta isn't at a point they are happy with. There are still major issues to be sorted, features to be completed and performance to be improved.
Right now they are in a position of being damned if they do damned if they don't. Logitech are being criticised for holding onto a product to get the software right, if they released it now, they would be criticised for releasing too early and not waiting until the software was right. :) -- funkstar my collection: *1*x squeezebox radio *1*x squeezebox touch *1*x squeezebox boom *2*x controller, *1*x receiver *2*x sb3 (sliver/black), *1*x sb2 wired (silver) *1*x sb (black), *1*x slimp3 (with rear shield) interested in any others if you have them! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ funkstar's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2335 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=71178 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
