Like many of you, I was excited at the prospect of buy a Touch for some time. And like some, my interest is primarily in connecting it to an external hard drive, rather than to a wireless computer-based system. Convenience, high fidelity, and stylish, affordable package - the Touch seemed to offer it all.
However, after reading the many threads on this forum with informative posts from beta-testers and other folks with the technical know-how to understand what's going wrong and why, I can't see myself buying a Touch now, or in the near future. Even with the many delays due to software development, I get the feeling that the Touch is far from ready to provide a reliable and enjoyable experience to someone like me who knows good sound, but who lacks the technical knowledge to identify and fix bugs, or who has $1000-2000 to purchase a more sophisticated alternative (if there is one). Sorry to be such a party-pooper. I really wanted a Touch-EHD component to add to my modest but great-sounding stereo system, but with all I've read here from you guys, I think a purchase now would just lead to disappointment. Please, if you have the time and the interest, share your thoughts on my dilemma. Am I being realistic or a worry-wart? What would you do in my situation? Are there other considerations that I'm not aware of. Any and all replies will be greatly appreciated. -- iwannatouch ------------------------------------------------------------------------ iwannatouch's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36407 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79118 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
