Ok what you mention above is why I asked the question. I had read that the IR remote starts acting up when the power supply is getting long in the tooth. When I got my touch, I noticed the IR was more picky than my radios especially if you get too close. I found another adapter for $20.00 so I may pick one up just in case. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ fletch's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71552 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114520
