This is not a full windows 8 platform but will work new surface tablet and Samsung and others plan to use this OS which is not fully windows 8 compatible. It would be very helpful if sonos would support this as the tablet looks promising.

      Never begged before but I've got to say that Sonos is the best thing I've ever adopted, and please, please, please, consider adding a Windows RT interface..... And not to worry, I'll still be purchasing replacements for my older and newer style controllers, if they ever give up. Awesome products...

      Come on Sonos, Windows Phone 8 and Windows Surface - why would not you not do that? Peter

      +1 Come on Sonos, you make wonderful products, but I've been waiting 2.5 years for an app on Windows Phone and now I have a family of Surfaces and Win8 machines (not to mention an Xbox Music subscription) that are crying out for a bit of Sonos love.

      I support this too. Would find it very useful if I could control Sonos from my Windows 7 or 8 phone plus my Windows 8 RT tablet. As soon as this is supported I shall be buying the 2 x Play:3 and Bridge bundle

      As my house in process of being built now, I have to make a decision on a music system. Was really hoping and planning to go with Sonos, but as they refuse to even acknowledge the need to support Win 8, I have to look elsewhere. This is a huge disappointment, but without a viable controller option I have no other choice.

      No way to control my sonos for a few months now...getting slightly annoyed.

      Dear Sonos Developers, Please consider that you need to build the App for Windows Phone 8 and Windows 8 RT just once and compile the Apps just for the phone and windows 8 runtime. Thats a very efficient approach. We would love to see the Sonos contol App for Windows Phone 8 and Windows 8 RT desperatly because Windows 8 rocks!
