Consider this as a possible alternative: http://vortexbox.org/threads/4577-Logitech-SqueezeBox-replacement-for-under-30 You can get the PogoPlug from Adorama Camera at the moment for $18 on closeout! And Andrew from Vortexbox has ready-made images for it that include a real-time kernel for optimised audio quality and minimal latency. His latest release includes SqueezeLite 0.9b but I've been running the 1.0rc1 and rc2 versions this last few days and they perform really well. I have a bunch of these sat in their boxes now on top of the one I'm using so I have loads of Squeezebox hardware for the foreseeable future! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ paulster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23073 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97046 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
