Title: A Beautiful Disaster
Product review: After reading a very favorable pre-launch review, I had a friend get me an Audiostation for my birthday. It's a very handsome thing, but deeply, deeply flawed. When I plug in my 80GB Fifth Generation iPod, usually the Soundstation just shuts down. The controls on the front of the machine tend not to work while the iPod is playing. I can generally control volume and mute from the rather ugly remote control, but I can't search, skip, pause or stop the iPod play from the remote. Questions on the Logitech support forum have gone unanswered. I'm too busy to mess around trying to call Logitech tech suppport - if they even HAVE a contact number. I have to find the paperwork, and I'll give it a try, but this feels very much like $300 down the drain.
