Hi Everyone,

It is interesting that a very similar topic has come up on two lists I
read at almost the same time.

For the Slink-e people, the TINI is a $50 "SIMM" based computer with
built-in 10BaseT ethernet that runs Java "natively".
For the TINI people, the Slink-e is a box that can control Sony audio
equipment via the proprietary Slink bus as well as do two-way IR.  It
has a free supporting program called CDJ that can control CD changers
and play MP3s.

Ok, that's the introductions over.
The topic that has come up on both lists is basically:

While there are plenty of "put a HD full of MP3's in this box" type MP3
solutions, there doesn't seem to be a solution based around "put a cheap
"receiver" on the network and stream from my computer".

The TINI and the LP3 (see http://lp3music.com) could be a solution.  Any
thoughts?

Regards,
  Paul Wilkinson
