I use Touches all over my house as controllers of other players, and they are fantastic for that purpose. Touch on my nightstand to control the Touch hooked up to the stereo across the room, Touch on the kitchen counter to control the SB3 controlling a stereo in the other room (with the B speakers from that stereo in the kitchen ceiling), Touch on my home office desk controlling a pair of synced Radios across the room (one playing L channel, one R channel). Squeezebox Touch was the best product in the line, and really had some untapped usage potential. The big issue with the touch interface for that product is that the common use case had it physically placed (e.g., in an AV stack) where you aren't using the touch interface. As a dedicated controller though, it rocks. cheers, #!/ben Former Logitech Developer: Squeezeplay/SqueezeOS/SqueezeboxController/SqueezeCenter Community Developer: Nokia770Skin (r.i.p.) http://www.last.fm/user/bklaas/ 'KHAAAN!'
