I don't even have my Squeezebox yet (as I've mentioned in a different
thread) and I'm already making demands! But since the Slim Devices
product devlopment folks monitor these groups (which is very cool) what
the heck...

1) A headless (no display) Squeezebox. Combine that with a Nokia web
pad and it's a Sonos killer.

2) A head (display) only Squeezebox that connects to the headless unit
above and it's a Sonos and Nokia killer. Ok, fine it doesn't quite kill
the Nokia web pad, but I'm an old Unix guy and like everything command
line. If it can't be done on a VT-100 I don't want it!

3) A USB IR blaster interface that has multiple (maybe 4) zones that
are adressable on a per Squeezebox basis. Plug it into the computer
running Slim server and it's a Xantech killer. From a hardware
perspecive there are these things:

But $50 per zone, not to mention the unweildy USB cables strung all
over with multiple units seems less than elegant.
