SliMP3 Successor; Radio Station in a Box

Posted by michael on Tuesday November 18, 2003 @08:29AM from the geeks-in-space-reborn dept.

XDG writes "Slim Devices just updated their website and announced The Squeezebox, the Wi-Fi successor to the SliMP3 player. The new hardware adds digital output, support for uncompressed WAVs, and, of course built-in 802.11. And, best of all, it's still a simple front end hardware device running on upgradeable, customizable, 100%-open-source server software. Anyone that owns or ever drooled over a SliMP3 has something new for their holiday wish lists!" We also have a submission about a "digital radio station in a box" from World Vibrations.

SliMP3 looked better by Karamchand · 2003-11-18 08:31 · Score: 1, Redundant

While the successor's new features are certainly cool (I specially like the digital audio out) I prefered the original SliMP3's look. It just looked more exclusive, didn't have that cheap plastic look.
