I'm on the "need it" side of the fence. I could totally use something like this - an integrated Squeezebox housed with portable amped speakers that runs on batteries (optionally). No CAT5 port needed; just make it 802.11 G and all will be good. On the patio, on my porch, hell - in the bathroom during a shower - I could find use for such a device. Definately a niche product though. It could be more expensive, but not by much. Since many users might jump ship to such a device if it possesses the same features as the standard SB3, there'd have to be a happy medium. Perhaps an OLED display (lower power consumption than a vacuum fluorescent), but that may be cost prohibitive until the technology matures at the manufacturing level. Anyway, as said before it would definately be a niche product - WiFi has it's limits. I'd love to have one though! ;-) -- EnochLight ------------------------------------------------------------------------ EnochLight's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3392 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=17185 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
