No WiFi? No way to integrate into my networked home by DLNA? Nada Airplay? Come on. My Squeezebox Boom does better than this. Cannot say anything about the sound, but connectivity sucks on this one.
I use several Squeezeboxes controlled by the families i-Devices running the ipeng app. And I believe the future looks more like that than a standalone device with integrated ipod dock and a bluetooth transceiver.
Innovation in the field comes from companies outside of consumer electronics.
