No it isn't. Squeezebox is bespoke audio HARDWARE, not just a generic
computer running an app.
Not saying it might not be
I like the idea of a cheap Andrid client that can run on batteries.
I'll get one and report back.

Hi Ross,
not sure if you saw the bit in my original post, if I got this I'd run
it as a squeezebox, not as a replacement.
As its Android you can install the squeezeplay app, then the box itself
becomes another SB player on your network, thats the bit I'm interested
in!
cheers

I must say android is starting to get interesting but I do love my SBs
including the Radio. I'd be surprised if those speakers are up to
much. My radio sounds very pleasing.

I saw this too.
My thoughts. I don't want a DLNA-only audio player. I'm very happy with
the richness of squeezebox for audio and specifically I like the central
config/integration for the mysqueezebox.com services. I certainly WOULD
like the ability to run other apps on a similar
Makes no mention of wifi or e-net..
How would you talk to it? Would it listen?
