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.

      There are a lot of frustrated people on this thread.  And Sonos are just releasing an updated app for IOS and Android.

      What a bunch of jokers.

      This is really frustrating that Sonos decides to remake there App completely and will leaves Windows platform outside of the update. For the windows phone/RT platform they have issued a survey two month ago and haven commented anything since. This is NOT good consumer relation building.

      Me too. The Surface and Nokia Lumina tablets are so good they will be more and more popular. So support for Windows RT 8.1 seems logical and urgent!

      The survey was launched two months ago and still nothing back from anyone at Sonos. Can you at least make the results of the SurveyMonkey public so that we can see for ourselves what the feedback was?

      It is starting to feel like the survey was a pacifier to keep the Windows users quiet for a couple of weeks and nothing more.

      Could we at least get a bare-bones web app embedded in the controller? That would give WP/RT users *something* to control devices with.

      Sigh.  Just listened to the Play 1 at the store.  Sounded great and would be perfect for shower music in the bathroom.  Bought a JBL flip instead so I could control it from my windows phone.  Actually sounds pretty good.  My need to consider going the bluetooth route in the future.  Would rather control from the native music interface on my phone instead of an app anyway.  Love the speakers, but honestly, the best sounding music is the music you can actually listen to because you have a way to conveniently turn it on!

      I follow this discussion know since nearly one year. The only possible explanation to not have xbox music support or at least a Windows Phone app is a huge anti-support by Apple...:)

      Well im ready to turn to Bluesound or Samsung shape if they make a proper Windows phone/rt app I thought that Sonos would be in front but they seem to dont care. When i bought Sonos I was convinced the app would be soon on its way but here after 3 years still nothing!? arrogant
