Description Malcolm4 2008-10-17 13:57:23 UTC

Feature request: The Boom would be a better product if there was a headphone jack on the front of the panel.  Currently it is hidden away on the back where it cannot easily be reached. 

If it were on the front, then when the Boom is used as a bedside radio, it would be possible to plug in a headphone to listen to the radio at night or in the morning without disturbing one's sleeping partner.

Yep.  Agreed.  I use mine in bed with headphones (my wife goes to sleep before I do), and it's extremely non-trivial getting the plug in and out in the dark.

I'm going to go ahead and close this bug, since it's not going to be addressed on Boom, but future products and/or product reviisions we'll definitely consider better headphone jack location in the design.
