Slim Devices has made it more then clear on this Forum that they *Do
Not Intend* to go to "N" anytime soon or in the near future. Could that
change tomorrow, sure.

Past reasons for not moving to "N":
There is not a standardized official specification at this time.
It would add an unnecessary expense to unit cost.
Most importantly, its not really needed for what the Squeezeboxes do at
this time.
