>From my point of view and how I use it, once its scanned its fast. Some things to consider, it is going to depend on how 'You' are using it. There are no Plugins with TinySC except for the ones that have become a living part of SBS. Some people are working on hacks and it might end up third party. The things I have tried have caused the Touch to crash over time. Memory is the issue which is why their is also no WebUI. I think it should have been called SlimSC as its a slimmed down version of SBS. It might have been if Logitech had not bought Slim Devices. If you want full featured SBS, Touch in standalone mode is not going to be for you. Don't get me wrong because it opens huge new ways to use ones digital library. In the Car, at the weekend home, over at a friend's house, bring into the office without putting anything on the company PC or using bandwidth to SSH home, and so on. No need to load SBS on somebody else's PC to show them what Squeezebox is all about for local music. Touch in standalone mode opens a whole new world of Squeezebox use! -- iPhone *iPhone* Media Room: Transporter, VTL TL-6.5 Signature Pre-Amp, Ayre MX-R Mono's, VeraStarr 6.4SE 6-channel Amp, Vandersteen Speakers: Quatro Mains, VCC-5 Reference Center, four VSM-1 Signatures, Video: Runco RS 900 CineWide AutoScope 2.35:1 Living Room: Duet, ADCOM GTP-870HD, Cinepro 3K6SE III Gold, Vandersteen Model 3A Signature, Two 2Wq subs, VCC-2, Two VSM-1 Kitchen: Squeezebox BOOM Bedroom: Second Boom Bathroom: Squeezebox Radio Ford Thunderbird: Duet, Mac Mini Ford Expedition: SB Touch, USB drive ------------------------------------------------------------------------ iPhone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13622 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=76887 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
