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.

      Please tell me that at least a Windows Phone 8 app is inbound to launch alongside the Sonos Play 1...I so badly want to adopt a Sonos home theatre setup with playbar, sub and surround but simply cannot spend more money beyond my two Play 5s, two Play 3s and Sonos Connect until my Nokia Lumia 1020 is supported at the very least....support for my Surface RT tablet would certainly be icing on the cake!

      John M, how long has this been under consideration?

      John M, how long has this been under consideration?
      This request was submitted around the time of the launch of Windows Phone 8 and Windows RT last year. It's been under consideration for essentially that whole time. Not every request goes under consideration immediately but this has consistently been one of our most popular requests.

      Don't you get it. They don't care since they deem Windows as a small segment of the market. It's not cost effective for them to develop the app on Windows. End of story.

      That's why it's still under consideration to keep you buying their goods with the hope that an app will be developed someday that will never come...

      Another Lumia 920 and Surface RT owner. I'm holding off on purchasing a couple connect amps until I've got an app to control them.

      Another WP8 owner here, who has been waiting, waiting. Even if there are only a few thousand more customers buying your products, wouldn't it still make sense to create such an app? This attitude is starting to appear arrogant towards your loyal customers who like to have choice!

      I personally will equip every room in my place, once an official Sonos WP8 app is available and no sooner.

      Here's another Lumia 920 and Surface RT owner. Please realize the need for a app on these platforms.
