I realise who Sean is.  I am also a complete cynic that believes that
even if its just firmware there is no way Sean is going to tell me, as
its obvious from a business point of view these should not be in public
hands and releasing this information would open up a potential back
door.  

I'm terms of of your "doesn't have the guts" I've ted in my previous
posts that it looks to me (a) the unit is visually identical inside
(except for the CF Card in the place of the WiFi) to a production unit
(based on comparisons with lots of highres online guides from all the
audio modders. (b) The rolling demo actually includes lots of audio -
its not just a rolling text demo so there is functional audio hardware
in this (c) I can actually get it to connect to my Squeeze Server etc.
and browse tracks etc. (d) This is a also a Logitech branded demo unit
not a Slim devices (if that makes any difference in terms of demo
hardware versions)

Hacking the CF Card is obviously a dead end (it looks to just contain
the demo) but it would be at least be fun to get it to scroll something
else.

I also realise I'm now probably posting in the wrong section - the
hardware mod section seems to have people more willing to seriously hack
the hardware and swap bits out (upgraded wifi cards etc.)
