I ended up with one of these myself. on craigslist, not ebay.
no I don't have the dude's email address, dealt with him over the
phone, and i didn't keep the number like an idiot.

it is a brick, I can attest to that.

opened it up to have a look inside to determine if there are any
differences, and the major difference i found was that instead of a
wireless mini pci card, there is a compact flash adapter with a 128 meg
CF card in it.

removing that pci card made the -*"starting demo in..."*- message go
away, and made it look like it boots normally with the squeezebox
splash screen and all.

I was able to set things up in regards to network settings and all that
using a Harmony remote, but as soon as it connects to the squeeze
center, and wants to update the firmware, it gacks. it stays stuck at
the -*"download complete. unplug ethernet to continue. this may take a
few minutes"*-

it just stays there.

I wonder if there is a way to get it up and going with some hardware
modification.
