If the PSP includes a media player that allows connection to an

I think you need some in-line attenuators. These devices
are basically tubes with a phone socket on one end, a
plug on the other and an attenuator in the middle. They're

Any chance this box will be powerful enough to do the alienBBC

I'd love a nice quiet low-power box to run SServer, but it also
has to run AlienBBC.
Again the 400GB version would be mandatory for me.

802.11b (11mbps) can be OK for lossless music streamed at
full PCM data rates, but it depends on your environment.
