The PogoPlug I'm using has a Marvell Kirkwood 1.2GHz (ARM) processor and 256 GB memory. You could run LMS on it if you wanted. I'm using squeezeplug as a base OS so this would be very easy to do.
I never recommend running LMS on a unit like this becasue of problems with rebuilding a your libary, WMA playback, Spotify etc. Your much better off haveing a VortexBox and use the VAMP as a player only. As for wifi this would be required to make this a true replacement for the SqueezeBox. This unit does not have wifi so you will need to use something like a HomePlug adapter for now. I consider HomePlug more reliable then wifi but that is a discussion for another thread! I have a small wifi dongle that cost $8. I will be writing more articles about the VAMP and I may write one on wifi enabling it. I'm sorry the pogo is not available in Europe. Maybe I'll find a cheap way to ship them there! I would love to base the VAMP off something that is more widely available worldwide. I looked at the Pi but you need a case for it. That can cost almost as much as the unit for a nice one. Also only one USB port. The Pogo has 4 usb ports and comes in a nice case already for under $20! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ agillis's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21140 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97721 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
