Support Windows 8 RT for Surface Tablet and Windows Phone 8 for Mobile Devices

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.

    I just started to use Lumia 820 WP8 phone. It would so cool to control also Sonos by using the phone. At the moment I need to use old Anroid phone for it. Also NFC support for playing music from Nokia phone would be cool to have.

    I would love being to control my Sonos setup from my Surface RT tablet. I even would like to develop or contribute to a Sonos Controller app for the Windows Store! Sincerely, A Windows developer

    how much interest needs to be rasied for this to go from under consideration to development? The Windows 8 RT and WP8 market is growing and a fully working app would be awesome to use on these devices. Please start some development on this ASAP.

    would it be so hard to just compile an ARM version of the Windows controller as a stopgap for Surface users? That would at least give some headroom for a Modern app to get built and published to the Windows Store.
    surface is in fact the sexiest tablet atm. need win rt app, when u have an rt app ill buy the sonos stuff too 😃

    I am considering sonos. Reading this its obvious that sonos is not really putting effort in making it available on the largest supported platform. Does anyone has experience with Phonos apps?

    Just bought another play 5 and want to buy a Playbar, but hesitant when not supporting my major devices (Win Phone 8 and Surface Pro). I know market share is low, but what companies are willing to give up 5% of revenue? Waiting for support before more purchases
