The first big weakness, IMHO, is the screen.  How can see you what's
playing from across the room?  It looks quite tiny.

They also didn't show the remote control unit.

They also seem to be lacking a bit of technical details.  What speed
is their Ethernet, no WiFi, for example?  Built-in DHCP client?
Fixed IP address possible?

I gotta admit it... I love my Squeezeboxes!
