CC is immeasurably better because of the involvement of users. I am sometimes too deep in my own box to see how things could be done better simply by re-thinking a bit. And even knowing this I find myself sometimes resisting good ideas simply because they are surprising.
Now to the real reason for this post: I am looking at how this can be done. One of the fundamental questions is "Where are the settings located?" I see two places: all three in the "Menus" section or one each in the Wireless Device, Content Server, and Cloud connection sections. I can make arguments either way. Having all of them in the Menus section reduces discoverability but makes changing the settings somewhat easier. Having them in the individual setting groups makes the settings far more visible/discoverable but means that one must visit each group to change the setting. I am leaning toward the individual groups.
One reason for my leaning is that the fourth connect option is already controlled in its own section "Other / Sync newer book files". I have considered moving this option to the Wireless Device group, but up to now haven't had a good reason to make the change. Putting an option for the standard connect in that settings group gives me that reason.
Anyone care one way or the other? Or have a different idea?
