Some details about the module which contains the brains and comm interfaces of Squeezebox2 can be found here: http://www.seanadams.com/ip3k It is actually not SB2-specific, but rather a clustering of the ip3023 processor with memory, wifi etc which could be used for many applications (printers, access points, industrial comm interfaces etc). There is a long story behind this about a battle to get the Ubicom processor made accessible to open development (right now the SDK costs $30K). Once they pull their heads out of their butts it could be made into a really interesting development platform. Obviously the module lends itself to embedding SB2 functionality other places. I can't comment on if, when, or from whom to expect such implementations. -- seanadams _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
