[slim] Custom Cases for Squeezebox3?
Hi all, So I was wondering - how "hackable" is the Squeezebox 3 from a "custom case" perspective? Been thinking of starting a project for either my SliMP3 or a brand new Squeezebox. It's pretty obvious that I can make a custom plexiglass panel for my SliMP3 and simply unscrew it from its current L-shaped panel and screw it into the new panel, with no other hardware mods necessary. And its very small size make it easy to fit into many types of enclosures. But what about the Squeezebox3? How does it disassemble? What are the parts? Any internals pics available on the Web? Anyone already made some custom cases for it? All I've found so far are SliMP3 or Squeezebox 1 or 2 custom case projects... Any info/pointers greatly appreciated! -- doundounba doundounba's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4558 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22618 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Re: Custom Cases for Squeezebox3?
Well, thanks for the info JJZolx - much appreciated. Guess it looks like I might be hunting for a Squeezebox 2 on Ebay for a while... BTW, what I'm thinking of trying is putting my SliMP3 (or a Squeezebox), possibly including some speakers, into a nice vintage radio case... -- doundounba doundounba's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4558 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22618 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Squeezebox Publicity Sighting...
A big electronics retailer in the province of Quebec (Dumoulin) had a large publicity catalog insert in one of the major newspapers here in Montreal (La Presse) today. On p. 27, there's a Logitech corner, with three items: Harmony H550, H1000 and the Squeezebox (3). A tad on the expensive side at $CAN368.88, but that's typical for this kind of place, I guess... As for me, I want a sale! My two Slimp3s (!) are getting a little old... Can't wait for a Jive-powered product to show up! -- doundounba doundounba's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4558 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40535 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] SB4: The 'Duet' is here
So... This product looks good!
I do wish they'd make another combo available (at less than the sum of
the individual prices): { SB3 + new controller } for maybe... $500?
At $299, the controller does seem a little expensive compared to, say,
an N800, but I'd probably want one...

They do have to start somewhere, but AFAICT, it's not true that anyone is free to extend the current solution. There's a thread on licensing on the Jive Dev forum discussing the licensing on the Jive SDK - basically the license prevents people from redistributing any code changes. This means you're unlikely to see the same kind of community-based development on the Jive stuff as you saw on the slimserver code. In particular, you're very unlikely to see community ports to the N800 or iPhone. Possibly some commercial dev might enter into an agreement with Logitech to do a port and sell us client software... -- doundounba doundounba's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4558 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41813 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Logitech Branding
For those who care (not really me), the latest 6.5.2 now includes the Logitech logo. In point of fact, the file "html/images/slimdevices_logo.gif" *just* has the Logitech logo - no mention of Slim Devices. -- doundounba doundounba's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4558 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33966 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Where does everyone buy their online music from?
Count me in as another happy eMusic customer. First subscribed when it was unlimited. Then they switched their model, and I still stayed on. Eventually I did get "download fatigue". You have X downloads per month, and if you don't use them, you loose them. After a while it started taking longer and longer to find stuff I liked and wanted. I dropped out for about a year, and came back on a little over a year ago (before the latest price hike). Still happy right now. I also occasionally shop at place like Calabash Music and bluetracks.ca when I can't find stuff on eMusic (e.g. French group Lo'Jo). Been keeping an eye on puretracks.com, but so far their MP3 selection has been a little disappointing (and I don't buy wma). -- doundounba doundounba's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4558 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35446 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
