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.

    PLEASE! Don't let us alone. You will pay a hard price, not supporting Windows RT, Windows Phone and Xbox Music. Please implement it asap on SONOS and you will not lose your drive being an innovative company. Don't make the mistake sitting only in the Apple/Android corner.... Thank's to Santa Barbara....

    Get'r done Sonos dev team! We're waiting! It's great it works so well on apple products but now that msft has a great device / tablet - it's time to pioneer a music app for them and get it into the music store (which is lacking!).

    Wanted to add my support for this too. I'd been running the less than ideal desktop app on an Acer 500 tablet running the windows 8 rc but now I've added a Surface RT to my household and I'd love to make that my main sonos device. A metro Sonos app could be stunning, a real show case. I've all the threads re. Win 8/RT/Win Phone 8/Xbox Music and it would make sense to support them all but I like many here are desperate and an early beta release would be well received.

    I love Sonos - currently using it with RDIO and am pretty happy. However lack of support for Win8 has be reaching for other devices to operate my Sonos system. It would also be nice to support Xbox music as well. Right now I feel locked into RDIO (live in Canada). Support for Xbox music would give me some more flexibility.

    Desperately need you Guys to bring forward a sonos app to the arm win8 platform. I'm so hooked into Surface, and just need you Guys (+Spotify) to fill in the gap. Please....

    Sonos - we all love you. We are called "customers". I think it's only reasonable that you give us some indication whether you are at least considering support for RT and or Windows 8 Mobile - or whether we are wasting our time hoping.

    Hello, Yes - this topic is marked as under consideration and I can tell you that support for Windows RT and / or Windows 8 Mobile are both under consideration by Sonos. Thanks!
