At this point, it looks like this won't happen unless there are fundamental changes made in Android on the Revue: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showpost.php?p=666962&postcount=299 I hope at some point they bring support for the NDK into the Revue (or Google TV in general). It would be really cool if they could merge the squeezebox and Revue on the hardware end. The only danger there is it could spell the end of squeezebox specific hardware. One issue Bluegaspode would have to deal with is that the Revue runs on an Atom as opposed to an ARM. -- maggior Rich --------- Setup: 2 SB3s, 4 Booms, 1 Duet, 1 Receiver, 1 Touch, iPeng on iPod Touch, SqueezeCommander on Xoom.
