I guess that the software is win only? Or is there a chance(in form of a hybrid software) for macusers???

Greetings

yes, only win!!

Presumably then the sequence is:- switch off TV/radio/other by a long press of the red button, replace the Beo5 in its dock, then select lights and press off again for the LC2(s) to switch off?

Mmmmmmm and that's progress? 

You have a point there,Kokomo.
Guess we'll have to get B&O to make a wall charger we can keep near the doorway!😕

Peter!

You have a point of course! 
Beoworld should not disseminate this sw. But next thing we have to think about is when quetions about how to program the Beo 5 with the "banned" software starts comming up. Will we allow this or not? If not, I think there would be lots of good idéas and knowledge getting lost.

What do you all say?

Agree with you Peter. However, I'm very pleased with my Beo4 and I'll wait to get the Beo5 until the software is included.
