That doesn't sound like a good idea to me. It tells the customer he
needs all that gear just to get a radio to play a single note. It's
like putting big orange safety warning stickers on a kids' toy and
expecting anyone to buy it.

I think someone at Logitech has figured out that the Squeezebox thin
client concept just isn't a mass market product. It may be profitable
now that they've pulled most of the development and QA staff off of the
project, but I don't think Logitech is likely to ramp up marketing or
development again.

A revamped Touch that can run the server with much better performance
and stability may make sense.  Even though the Touch is relatively new,
it was in beta testing for a long time and the hardware design and
prototyping undoubtedly took a while before that.  The design is now
years old, so it's conceivable that they could produce a much more
powerful machine for the same price today. To me, that's the only new
Squeezebox product that would make any sense at all.
