Fw: Re: Sonos CR200 - Detailed specs and US$ price

[Gareth Cook <g@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I like the CR100 as it gives you "instant" access, the CR200
won't

The embargo on the CR200 expires Tuesday, so we'll know what the prices
are then.




Is it only me that prefers the CR100? I don't have Sonos yet but am
currently planning a purchase for my parents. The 100 is likely to gain
far better approval due to its proper buttons in my mind!

Looking forward to trying the two but hopefully I'll be able to get some
good deals on the old kits!
