Hi Krister, I agree with Fred, let's just wait and see, after all, the only buttons a Sonos player has is a volume up/down and a play/pause button. I think even if these were just touch sensitive buttons a blind person could very easily figure them out or mark them as some suggested. If anybody who writes to Sonos about this gets a reply please do share it.

This might make them easily accessible just like micro-wave ovens. Let's not be alarmist until we have tried alternative ways of accessing a product especially when that product hasn't even hit the market yet.

According to the paper, the Play5 will have improved sound quality but, and this is the reason i post, the physical buttons will be replaced by touch functions and we all know what that means to someone blind or visually impaired. Is it time to look at other multiroom streaming solutions? /Krister -- The following information is important for all members of the VIPhone list.
