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.

      +1 for Surface RT app and WP8 app! Come on Sonos, you are a premium product, you should support premium platforms!

      The upcoming purchase of a Sonos soundbar depends on this. I will not purchase one if I cant control the whole system from my Surface RT! In fact I'll look at replacing my current products with a different system. Any news?

      Hoewel SONOS een der beste is wat muziekverdeling betreft, is het biezonder jammerlijk te noemen dat ze niet aan WP8 en Windows RT gedacht hebben. Hierdoor is het SONOS-product niet afgewerkt. Spijtig, ik had van zulks een bedrijf meer finishing touch verwacht. Hopelijk komen de app's er snel zodat SONOS zijn imago de beste kan waarmaken.

      Please add a Windows 8 Phone app. It works great on android and ios so it cannot be that hard to move it to phone8 😉

      New reports show that windows phone is gaining market share, and is growing faster than other platforms, is sonos going to continue ignoring it? http://www.wpcentral.com/new-data-shows-windows-phone-rise-us-strengthens-third-position

      I'd like to add my vote for a Win8 Mobile app too. Win8 may have the smallest share of the mobile phone market at the moment but it's unlikely to go away any time soon as it's a good OS and is appearing on well received phones. Although Android is every bit as good as Win 8, one reason it's so popular is because it's available on cheaper phones as well as premium phones. However, owners of cheap Android phones are less likely to own or be in the market for Sonos gear, which is pretty expensive.
