Shanling ET-3 owners - a couple of questions, please

My Audiolab 6000CDT ate a CD and would not give it back through the slot . . . without some major coaxing by me.

The ET-3 is getting great press and scuttlebutt.  But I'm trying to see how the ET-3 would work for me . . . and I'm finding zero info about the remote and whether it has track numbers so that an owner can jump from track to track on a CD.

Related, does the ET-3 allow an owner to program selected tracks before playing a CD?

Mundane and old-school questions, I realize I'm asking, but I wouldn't want to buy a new CD transport and not know. . . .

Your real-world advice is greatly appreciated!

Yes, you are the audiogoner I was trying to remember in my initial post, especially because you also enjoyed the Audiolab 6000CDT.

Thank you for pursuing this thread,

Chaz

Today an ET-3 was put into use.
My DAC only has a USB connection and wanted to once again listen to CD’s. 
Best my system has ever sounded. The sound stage opened up. Was pretty centralized. 

The remote is as basic as a remote can be. But I am pretty much a play/pause remote type person.

Ironic - I just installed my ET3 this afternoon. I was also strongly considering the CD31. I’d like to say all is going smoothly. For the most part, it is. I’m having trouble setting up WiFi. I started the process and clicked a wrong setting, now I can’t get back. The CD transport is working as it should. I’m hoping to set up WiFi soon because cover art was something I looked forward to. My eventual hope is to set up with an NAS or usb drive and play through my ddc/dac via usb. I can also set up a drive via my Node X, but no usb out.
