There is at least one iPhone app that decodes flac and ogg, see FStream
on the app store.

Well, I'm already leaning towards the 2nd generation because it's a
hassle to turn the volume down while listening to music.
Anyway, I'd like to try your application before I decide whether to
return the Touch or not, but I don't want to have to purchase it twice.
Can I transfer iPeng from iTunes

I went and picked up a 16GB iPod Touch today and when I got it home I
realized that it was a 1st generation Touch. I should have realized it
when the price rang up for less than I expected.

Question...I understand that you can use the iTouch/iPhone as a
controller for Squeezecenter, but can you use it as player. In other
words, can I use iPeng or Squidgy to stream music and listen through
the headphone jack of the iTouch/iPhone? The reason I'm asking is I

Yep. But as to the speed part, the Controller is in my experience far
more consistent in speed and smoothness of presenting menus etc. Both
Squidgy and iPeng seem to 'halt' processing of touches of the UI for
intervals as if blocked awaiting server interaction.

First NOTE: I do not have a controller so can not compare usability or

However I have iPeng and can not see how the controller could be any

If you had a small music library then the scroll wheel on the SBC would
be OK but it is unusable with a large collection - we went back to the

You are right, it depends on what you want to do.
The controller is better for quickly making simple changes (pause,
skip) while the iPhone apps are better for browsing and selecting
content and managing your playlist.
At least iPeng is much, much better as soon as you need to control more

Only Squidgy is publicly available; I doubt the beta-testers for the
other apps will comment until released on the AppStore.
As of now, I find the Controller with CustomeBrowse a much more viable
proposition.
