I have near 20/20 eye sight so I can assure you that 12' away is not readable for most people. Logi-techs screwed up big time in the usability department.
The cleverest bit of the original Squeezebox is the huge green one liner despite the small screen. It made the box a joy to use. By the way if you look at the nice Touch screen it is very similar size to a PDA. I am quite sure that Logitech is using its purchasing power and leverage parts from other PDA or one of their LCD remotes to make the $299 pricing. And from the shape of the screen I think it will be a challenge to display large letters like that of the SB2 and SB3. I am also surprised that no one else raised that issue. And to imply that the product is designed to be used with an iPhone or the Controller is bull. That was never stated in the product requirement. And it would preclude the requirement of many of the users who would expect the remote control is to work remote from the coach side of the living room. I have an iPhone with iPeng, and even I use the remote control 99% of the time. If they did a focus group they asked the wrong groups. -- agentsmith Main System: Source: Macbook Pro/M2Tech HiFace/Naim DAC/Teddy XPS Amplification: Naim 282/200/Hicap+Powerline/NAPSC Speakers: Harbeth Monitor 30 Bedroom System: SB2 or Airport Express + Meridian AD88 Missing my Transporter ------------------------------------------------------------------------ agentsmith's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1838 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78217 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
