The older I get, the less I like to fiddle around with and examine technical specifications. i know it can't be avoided completely, but I aim more and more for a 'toaster' mentality, where you just plug it in and it works. My SB3 experience was very close to that at first, but after some months I went round and round with router problems until i finally just bought a new one and it worked - I still don't know why the other one didn't - it used to, and it was fine for a laptop sitting right next to the squeeze.
But, my point is that when aiming at a mainstream audience, Logitech should make it as easy as possible to get a music sytem working. They've made their design decisions and it is a good step to say "a drive with specifications X, Y, Z will work" but it would be even better to have an easy-to-find place on their website with recommended specific popular models of necessary auxiliary equipment that are known to work in normal situations. One shouldn't have to dig through forums and wikis to find that information. There are many people who don't have to watch the last penny and will be happy to buy something that they know will just work. Apple has been successful enough that iPod/Iphone compatibility is the standard that other manufactureres emulate. Wouldn't it be great if Logitech could do that with Squeezebox? But until then, come on, make it easy for us to spend money on your product.
