Posted August 1, 200816 yr I met a sales rep a couple of months ago that showed the replacement for the "candy bar" style remote but I have yet to see any info about a release date. I also so a nice 7" portable touch screen. Any idea when either of these items will hit the market?
August 2, 200816 yr C4 has announced that a 7" WiFi will be forthcoming. The following is from the press release at the C4 website.The Control4 7-inch POE Wall Mount Touch Screen is priced at $1,195 retail for the US Market and is expected to ship in July 2008. A Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g) version will be available later this year, priced at $1,195 retail for the US Market. For a complete listing of 7-inch In-Wall Touch Screen product specifications, visit www.control4.com.
August 2, 200816 yr The WiFi version announced in the post above is not a portable, but is a wi-fi version of the in-wall, that can use 110V and not need additional wiring.RyanE
August 3, 200816 yr So, is C4 not hearing what customers want. Make a 7" portable "they will come" or "they will buy it". Movie anyone? (easy one)
August 3, 200816 yr I didn't say there would never be a 7" portable, I just said that the announcement referred to above is not one.RyanE
September 26, 200816 yr The posts above yours were before CEDIA, where Control4 officially announced that we're going to be coming out with a 7" portable.RyanE
September 26, 200816 yr Ryan, will the new 7" portable have a wall dock. I would like to use the "portable" as an in-wall until 80% of the time, but would like the option of being able to remove it and take it with me when I want control closer (like dinner parties). It would be nice to have an in-wall dock that would keep the unit charged.Any such wall mount available for the portable???

September 26, 200816 yr or you could recess a little shelf in your wall and keep it there until you "un-dock it".
September 26, 200816 yr Ryan and others, thanks for your input. Ryan, can you bring this to C4's attentions as a wishlist item.
