Welcome to the internet radio realm :). I have been a big fan/user for a
long time now and my latest acquisition to feed my net radio addiction
is the Roku soundbridge radio
(http://www.rokulabs.com/products_soundbridgeradio.php) , a really great
bedside device.

cheers.

hey! ankur, long time.
for-those-who-came-in-late: ankur is our perpetual advanced-newbie who
is the real gadget-guru in delhi's geekdom. kishore, you should
consider inviting him to your ndtv show once in a while.

ankur, this device is just perfect and i was wondering how to do this.
well, this is the solution!

could you please come to the sunday meet, and bring this device along
and demo to us. we promise not to let our drool spoil the circuitry
inside. :-)

oh and gora+kishore, let's also have our gpg-signing ceremony in the meet.
if kinshuk's got a gpg-key he could sign it with us as well

Yes Ling-man :) a really long time. I have been trying to con Kishore
into showing off my car pc for some time now but he doesnt bite the bait.

I will certainly try and make it for the meet, though i dont know if
getting the radio is a feasible option. Its a little biggish, its set to
my home wifi settings with encryption et al so its not really going to
work well without changing all that, and then changing it back. Though i
would love to talk about it and answer any questions that people may
have. I would add here that it runs some kind of *nix i believe. I had
to get into the CLI to set a static IP for it.

cheers.

 my lower jaw scraped the floor

 most stations stream at near-CD quality here.
 i prefer those with NO advertising, and NO chatty radio DJ yack.
 just the music.
 
 have expanded my tastes to several genres over these two to three months.
 it's an experience to expand your consciousness.
 and to discover how we tend to get so rigid about our tastes in music.
 
 anyways, on 15 july 2007, net radio could go dead.
 check out why here
 http://www.savenetradio.org/
 
 you could read a backgrounder here
 http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/news/43064-rip-internet-radio-71507
 
 and here i was, so excited about this new stream of radio juice!
 been enthusiastically sharing and inviting people to discover internet radio.
 i personally listen to atleast 10 to 16 hours of internet radio a day.
 and was even thinking of starting a thread or a forum or a mailing
 list so we could all share the multi-dimensional re-discovery of
 internet radio on broadbands at home.
 
 sigh!

 huh? did i say that there is an attempt to hijack my
meeting ? And why should i feel threatened when i have
absolutely no vested interest in either ilugd or
osscamp.
 My email was in response to the (as usual) mess
created by cross posting of bits of messages from
another mailing list. A mail on osscamp list was
crying  about the private meet when there  is a 
community meet taking place. My mail was an attempt to
take my name out of the mess.
 Also, this is not my *private* meet nor am I an
organizer of osscamp.
 If osscamp guys want to coordinate with ilugd its
absolutely there wish and I have no word in this. Had
some members restrained from foolish exercise of cross
posting in two lists and dragging my name into the
matter, I had no need to post the message in first
place.
