Which came first, the chicken or the egg?  Did they purposely design
the hardware to run only a limited version of the server, or was the
server scaled back due to the hardware limitations?  I think it was
mostly the latter - TinySbS was made tiny because they realized early
on that the hardware couldn't run the full server.  With better
hardware, one could reasonably expect more features to be enabled. 
Transcoding.  The web interface.  Plugins.  At some point, the entire
BigSbS.

I'm not sure we'll see a faster Touch, though.  I think the product
missed the mark on too many points for Logitech to continue in that
direction.  Squeezebox Server on the Revue would be a better bet, IMO.
