Sorry, I'm a little excited. I just got my Squeezebox last night. UPS
usually delivers in the early afternoon; waiting for this thing to be
delivered yesterday was torture.

Anyway, it took approximately a minute to get the Squeezebox set up.
(I'm using a wired Ethernet connection, and I've had SlimServer set up
for a couple of days).

I have to say that I'm just blown away by this thing. I have a large
FLAC music library of all of my CDs and more. My music has never
sounded better. Can't see any reason why I'd ever use a CD at home
again. (My audio system is not terribly high-end; I'm using a
Harman/Kardon Festival 60 mini-system. But it's good enough for present
purposes.)

At the moment my g/f is listening to what I'm listening to here at home
at her work. This is really tremendously cool.

It's pretty rare that I'm this impressed by a purhcase that I've made.
I really have no complaints at all. (Well, I did just discover that if
a Squeezebox and Softsqueeze player are synced, it seems that plaback
is no longer gapless -- there's a small pause in the transition from
one song to another. But this is fairly minor.)

I'm currently running Slimserver on my laptop, which is home most of
the time, but the next step will be to get a hold of my sister's old
laptop and set that up as the music server.

best,
David
