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.

    Well it really looks that this won't happen any time soon, and I need to Mena a decision by next week if I get my house wire for a regular multiroom system or not, so here are some questions, Has anyone used any of the 3rd party apps for wp8 and Windows Rt? Do they work? Is there any other brand that will allow me to stream wirelessly from my surface?

    Windows 8 Tiles: Sonos please make an app for windows 8. The current UI for android and windows 7 is basic, very dated and awkward to use, especially on a Kindle fire. Those tiny arrows to get back to a previous menu, is like something from 1995.The Sonos controller is a perfect candidate for windows 8 tiles. I love Sonos hardware, but the controller software needs a complete redesign. Here's hoping.....

    I am another customer who wants to expand their Sonos system, but wont until this is addressed. I'm interested in purchasing a sub, playbar and another play 5. However, I refuse to make those purchases until Sonos gets their act together and starts supporting the window's ecosystem better. Here's to waiting for a competitor to come along and steal the market share. These guys are clowns with their "Under consideration" for over 5 months. Terrible customer support and service.

    And yet another supporter for what it's worth. I also agree with the other posters in having some better updates from the SONOS team.
