Yep, I mean home jukebox (music server cause you can actually attach winamp to it and stream music from the device even if you're located in another room or so).
I've got a Sony VAIO notebook and I noticed Sony also makes (years after Empeg, that is) a similar streaming product. Same goes for the Philips Streamium.

Finally, the ipod shuffle: you can get something better for less, so why bother? I agree with you that the yoke is lame and the "patented shuffle mechanism" is a bunch of malarkey. I mean, my first cd player (Sony) 10 years ago already had a shuffle mode, what's new in that apart from the Apple brand and cool factor? Nothing, it appears.
