hmmm, I'm a longtime ipeng user (iphone and ipad) and I also use SqueezePad. I like all 3. I've never seen the problems you mention regarding iPeng. And I use iPeng (iphone and ipad versions) in two different homes, both with LMS servers. So I'm often switching back and forth between servers and it has always been automatic. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97366 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
