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 almost decided to build my new setup on Sonos. Then I discovered (because I asked - not because I saw it in a Sonos brochure, oh no...) that all the nice words about Sonos are effectively meaningless. But I don't despair. There are any number of sound bars out there, and many of them offer just as much value for your Money as Sonos does. I expect to be a little irritated with the operation of whatever I decide to buy - but I shall probably enjoy the sound quality that much more. Christian

    I just purchased and had a Sonos in my lower level remodel project. I was surprised to find that you do not have a Windows phone app. This is rather poor form to have such a product and only support part of the phone population. When will you correct bthis major flaw?

    This is really ridiculous. Hurry up and release an app for Windows phones! I've been a loyal customer of Sonos forever. I'd be more than happy to spend a few bucks on an app if necessary. I would've been willing to pay for the iOS versions I've used for years. To not offer something for which so many of your customers have been clamoring for months is terrible. So much of the success of Sonos has been based upon the word of mouth of your customers. I've personally been directly responsible for 8 families, besides my own, buying systems for their homes. At least 3 of them, in turn, have been the catalyst for purchases by others. To continue to do nothing is inexcusable.

    SO - What's the status of this project?!
    The status is "Under Consideration." When the status changes, it will either be "Planned" or "Unplanned."

    Just adding my voice here. Really need a WP8 app for an investment in a Sonos system to be worthwhile for me.

    adding my vote too for a special release of the controler on windows RT. All the portable device should be compatible as the Microsoft Surface...
