"The SliMP3 is an Ethernet digital music player that
streams tunes from a Linux PC. The player allows the user to hook
up to the source without having to allocate a separate PC to
receive that music over the network. For those of you who have done
exactly that just to pump a little music into the lobby, you will
find this little player can save quite a bit in both money and
space.
The SliMP3's Spartan design underlines the products simplicity,
a simple board and vacuum fluorescent display screwed behind a
slightly larger translucent smoke gray plastic screen shield that
also makes up the unit's base. The Ethernet jack is embedded
directly in the card and two RCA jacks draw the signal to the
speakers. The player has a 1MB buffer that provides 8 seconds of
buffer for 128MB flies.
The SliMP3 comes with a 5V, 1000ma regulated power supply. A
Sony RM-V301 universal remote to operate the unit is also
supplied."
