Hey, is this topic dead or is it still planned for the future?  I would really like to see one or both of these devices (SqueezeBox/SqueezeBox2 and Homepod) discussed and demonstrated at a future CinJUG.

I just spoke to Dale.  Dec 20th is a OK.

As background, Chris and I were talking about PVRs and I mentioned that I 
was streaming audio through the house using the Homepod and I asked him if 
he heard of the Squeezebox.  Since Chris hadn't seen it, I wondered how 
many others hadn't seen it.  Since the Homepod runs Java (IBM's J9) and 
uses Java to talk to a server that serves up music  (Firmware and Gloo and 
Application are all open source) and the emulator for the Squeezebox (for 
plugin development) runs on Java and since Christmas/Hannukah are right 
around the corner, the idea was born.

Can you respond to the group if you would plan on coming?

You're on!  The meeing would fall on the 20th for
December.  Often we skip December cuz of the holidays
and what not, but I'll be in town if we do wanna meet.
 What does the group think?  Yeah or nay on a December
meeting? 

Either way, this sounds like a fun topic for the next
meeting, whether that be Dec. or Jan.

Chris (again), nice talk.  Dale Martin and I talked
about doing a pitch on 
MP3 players and Java.  He's purchased the
Squeezebox.  I've purchased the 
Homepod.

We could dub it -- what to do w/ your Christmas $.

What do you think?
