Asked 4 years ago by MaggieMay.

• A:Answer I forgot to mention in my previous answer that, no, you don't need any additional equipment. Everything is streamed over the Internet, and played on the built-in speaker. You do have the option of subscribing to TunedIn's premium service, which will have fewer ads and more contents. Before buying this device, try out TunedIn on your phone, tablet or computer. You can either go to TunedIn's website, or download their app. What you hear is exactly what you'd hear on this device.

Q: QuestionI would like this to show a daily quote, randomly from a list of quotes i provide. Thatd be its sole purpose. Is this possible? Thanks

Asked 4 years ago by TimAMD.

• A:Answer You can have it show a slide show of photos you select. So, theoretically, if you were to use your phone or whatever to type the quotes into a format you like, and then maybe screenshot them, you could use those as the pictures it will display. There's probably a simpler way that someone who has more technological experience, or has had the Hub for longer than a few weeks like I have, could come up with, but that's how I'd do it.
