I didnt know where to post this one, here or in the home theatre forum.
Interesting article about a high-end music player developed for audiophiles to play music over wi-fi.

Oh, the Transporter... It's a new version of Slim Devices... The company distributes these in New Zealand through Mabode (Jay Templeton is one of the speakers at Geekzone 2006).

The devices are nice. But I wanted to see how better than the original SlimDevice Squeezebox or the Roku SoundBridge it would be...

Isn't Microsoft bringing out Zune which "may" have wifi? if so it would be the first DAP with Wifi for wireless music streaming.

Internet is my backyard...
