Many thanks for your feedback!! I thought I was the only one having this problem so I called the Logitech support in Germany and they said it was for sure a software problem and that I should wait for the new version of the server. I'll wait for the new version and if I still have the same problem, I'll send the touch back. I hope they are right and logitech can solve this bug with the new version... -- perro6969 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ perro6969's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37592 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77156 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
