OK, for those of you who can't or don't want to listen to a real media stream, here are a few bits and pieces I picked up (hope I got it right ).

SonicBlue have a server in beta testing that will serve to the RioReciever and the empeg/RioCar, at least some time in the future. The first version will use this funny phone line networking that the Americans seem keen on, but they are also working on networking solutions that use power circuits and WaveLan.

There seemed to be plans to produce a RioCar with WaveLan too, as well as an OEM solution - there are discussions taking place with a major automotive manufacturer.

A pity he didn't mention empeg though - said they had been shipping the RioCar for a couple of months, which is technically true, but the hardware itself has been shipping much longer than that! Anyone got more to add?
