B&O just released Beo5 Configuration Tool version 3.0 today.

It's very promising to see that B&O seems to be listening to our wish lists regarding features/improvements in the Beosound 5 software. There are two minor improvements that I'm glad to see B&O is planning: (1) The option to program the BS5 to use other function buttons such as the A.Mem hard button on the Beo4. Also (2) the ability

This news regarding BeoSound 5 was just released 5/5/09. It seems that B&O is indeed planning to allow an "omit from MOTS" option to deal with the Christmas music problem. Other interesting updates are on the way as well. Information regarding known issues on BeoSound 5 and BeoMaster 5 Top issues that are according to product specifications
