Ben,
Hopefully you can help me! I want to know whether to splash the cash and get the Roku M1000 or go for the SqueezeBox. I am running Win Xp SP2 and at present do not have a wireless setup and would probably just go for the ethernet connection at the moment.
Seeing as though you're retailing the Squeezebox at �129 this week, would you recommend this over the �50 more expensive Roku?
Thanks in advance,
Richard
