I don't know if SoA is still available / supported.
I would look into downloading an OS from the Wandboard community and
then install LMS on it. This way you'll have the latest software
running.
Personally I have stopped using Wandboards a long time ago and went the
RPI way. These devices are well supported by the Squeezebox community.
You could easily install piCorePlayer for example. An RPI is not very
expensive either.
