Not to derail this thread too much, but I just finished up reading most of it, and I'm really disappointed. How are you current Poly owners dealing with all these issues without going insane? Is this a case of the vocal few with issues overshadowing the many who are having good experiences? Or are most people running into multiple random issues?
I'm really excited about the Poly since I just picked up a Mojo for myself, and I believe that eventually the Poly will live up to Chord's original, grandiose claims, but how can a company justify putting out a product that's so obviously not ready for mass consumption?
Someone please correct me if any of my observations or assumptions are incorrect, but this seems like a real "crap the bed" product launch. To me the most simple use case of this device isn't possible right now (control of the SD playback using BT instead of WiFi), this should be a no-brainer. Who wants to constantly connect using WiFi to change songs when most will already be connected to some other WiFi network (like at work where communication between phone and Poly isn't possible).
I'm definitely going to buy this unit, but not until Chord gets this crap together, and at the very least gets their own app out there. Mostly just disappointing considering the reputation of the company putting out the product.
