Ok a webcam support and web server is not necessary. But I've searched for an mp3 player which supports external storages (flash and hdd). I think the 770 would be perfect for this. And you could use it for watching videos and pictures too. I've never found a mp3 player which supports external storages. I will be very lucky if someone can show me a device like this :). Video and picture support isn't so important. I want only hear my big mp3 collection without a computer. Thx Steffen

It runs Linux 2.4 and has two USB host ports that are primarily intended for connecting harddisks. I use one of thes boxes as a uPnP-Server for my Noxon. Since the NSLU2 has a samba server on board you might want to access your MP3s from the N770 (I guess the smb-client for gnomevfs is either on board or added easily), so you will be able to listen to your music and watch videos without lots of cables (and hardware hacked USB hubs). I assume with a N770, my Wireless DSL router and the NSLU2 there is no more reason to run one PC all the time.
