Logitech can't come up with a smart phone app to simply switch their
player between Logitech's own two servers.

Let's not segregate the SqueezeBox players any further, we are damn
lucky to have what we have, and at $300 (or less) the Touch is the best
device in it's class.

I like your idea but what custom boutique hardware device that works
for you won't work for all, as the current Touch model does.  Someone
else will argue "I have an external DAC so remove the DAC" or "if I'm
using the analog outs then remove the two digital outs" or "I plan to
use a server on my PC so remove the USB and SD card".... you can drive
yourself batty trying to custom build for every possible user scenario
when all along the product you desire is already there, granted at a
higher price point than you wish.
