My guess would be Apple TV. That said it is rather sad that the whole LMS ecosystem is being basically ignored by high end manufacturers. On the plus side I did read in the latest Stereophile that the Antipodes DX Reference music server (http://www.antipodesaudio.com/antipodes_music_servers.html) uses a Linux/VortexBox/LMS software combination. However from what I could gather from the review the Antipodes appears to be a very overpriced single purpose computer with the ability to rip CDs and stream a few internet music services. LMS is used to manage the music library that is stored on the internal hard drives and to access the streaming music services. Oh but it does use the "sanctioned" USB output so I guess that makes it high end. One thing it is not is a music streamer.
