RE: Sonos - It just works!! Does what it says on the tin.



Not forgetting, the CR100 is 'showerproof'...it sure doesn't seem it,
but this youtube proves it (rather him than me):

I use the iPod Touch interface - it is very slick, but lacks some of the
functionality of the CR100, most notably (for me at least) the ability
to set the sleep timer and alarms. There is also a slight lag whilst it
acquires the wi-fi signal. Because of this, I will always have the
CR100 in the bedroom, but Touches everywhere else will work just fine.

I can't help thinking the CR100 must be the next item to be updated by
Sonos, but equally, it does just work...there's not much hardware
invented these days that still does the job 4 year later.

I keep getting tempted by Sonos but constantly get put off by the
controllers which look like 90's retro gadgets to me! :-)
Does anyone use the iphone or itouch as a permanent replacement to the
controller?
The video of it working on the Sonos site seems to show it as being
super slick and super fast. Is that the reality?
