    Ideally there would be zero bluetooth support and this would be catered to the HIFI crowd, with only 3.5mm jack supported.

    At least until we get a HIFI successor to bluetooth.

      Why would you want to not have Bluetooth Audio when it is extremely cheap to add and basically comes bundled with most WiFi chips nowadays? It just allows the user to use the device in more situations eg. Coming home from a commute and then continue with your music on your home Bluetooth kitchen speaker or change to your car speakers. I don’t know, but I don’t really see the appeal for the device yet, however I do appreciate the general philosophy of the design and open sourcing everything. I’d want a truely offline music podcast device that had both 3.5mm Audio and exelent Bluetooth and WiFi capabilities because using the phone can be annoying sometines.
