Anyone aware of the problems with the Linn Unidisk

A friend of mine has a brand-new Linn Unidisk. He is having quite a few problems, such as the unit not recognizing discs,skipping etc. I am told that Linn has had to develop a software "fix" for this. This kind of "glitch" should not be expected in a player that costs $11,000.00. I'm glad I bought the Esoteric DV-50. Anyone out there know about these Linn problems?

This is unlike Linn. Love them or hate them, they have some of the most reliable and feature rich gear available.

I heard this player a couple of months back.
The Audio store I heardit in is probably Linn's main high end dealer in their home city.
I got the impression from the dealer there were some small issues with the machine .
Certainly I saw him have to reload a disc one time although access times were pretty good.
Any comments on the sound of the player?
I wasn't overly impressed but it was in a dem room and with limited software.

I've seen none of those glitches as yet.
