  1. Happy Belated B-Day to you Both!

  3. The controller part of the Duet works with the Touch ( or any other SB player) - but then the combo is pricier than your original intent. The controller is a decent bit of kit - but the world has moved on, economies of scale mean other devices are more capable for the same price You don't need a smart-phone per-se- just a wi-fi enabled device to use on the network So maybe a bargain used nokia 770, N800, N810 or N880 might fit the bill, or one of the new iPod touches running the iPeng app, and its a multi functional / multi tasking device, so you could play Angry Birds, or Plants vs Zombies while you listen .... You could even be extravagant and get two touches , one hooked up to you dac, one to act as a touch screen controller for the other (it uses the same UI elements as the controller, and you can decide which device you want to control ....) Lots of flexibility - you just need to decide what bests fits your use case and budget ...
  4. I'd suggest you consider the Touch, as it has better analog + Digital outs plus a color touch screen. I/R Remote for couch control. If you already have a smartphone / netbook then you can use the web interface , or one of the dedicated control apps over local wi-fi.

    .... When television is good, nothing -- not the theater, not the magazines or newspapers -- nothing is better. But when television is bad, nothing is worse. I invite each of you to sit down in front of your television set when your station goes on the air and stay there, for a day, without a book, without a magazine, without a newspaper, without a profit and loss sheet or a rating book to distract you. Keep your eyes glued to that set until the station signs off. I can assure you that what you will observe is a vast wasteland.
