I'm sure a lot of you saw this on Slashdot, but i thought i'd bring it up and get some thoughts on it...especially from the Empeg guys.

It's a sort of Do It Yourself "portable" MP3 player. They provide the board, you provide power, hard drive, and RAM. There's a few shots of the board itself, and an interesting info page which mentions using it as a car player as well as a "removable hard drive" player for your computer. (docking sled in a drive bay type thing). $150 preassembled and tested. Besides the obvious lackings in comparison to the empeg, what do you all think. I'm in no way meaning this to be a comparison or challenge to the Empeg...i'm actually just curious on the Empeg guys comments on the hardware itself.

(thought about putting this in the ICE forum, but it's not specific to cars)
