Hi all

having read through a number of threads about DIY squeezeboxes - has
anyone considered using a cheap Android device, as a direct squeezebox
replacement?

For instance - in the UK you can get the Alcatel OT 903 for £30 from
carphonewarehouse.

This phone has a 3.5 mm audio output, and wifi inbuilt - plus of course
it has the screen to allow for player control.

As far as I see it, wiring this up to a decent amplifier using the 3.5mm
port, then using both squeezecommander and squeezeplayer from the play
store - could well replace a squeezebox.

am I overlooking something - or is this the perfect solution for a
simple low cost replacement?


I have implemented the setup using an old handset here - but
unfortunately it doesn't have a 3.5mm port - so it's only the quality of
the audio which I have not been able to properly test.
