Thanks, theres a few additional features i'd love you to include as well.

1. Make the recordable drive upgradeable to a DVD-RW drive so we can use it as a large removeable filesystem - even if we can only read it from other DVD drives. A DVD-RW can burn CD-Rs and CD-RWs as well.

2. Add the Video interface for both Composite/S-Video and VGA type output, meaning we can plug it into our TV sets or spare VGA monitor to use as a display device for large playlists and other operations that require lots of screen real-estate.

3. Make the LCD display on the front a touch-screen panel as well so we don't need to use the front-panel buttons to operate it.

4. Make it have a remote control as well so we can operate it from our couches and/or beds.

5. Make the inevitable large cooling Fan outlet a Real QuietTM model.

6. Make it run Linux and have plenty of spare CPU resources so we can hack the display and add all our wonderful userland applications.

7. With the DVD-RW drive fitted allow it to play DVDs as well.

8. GIve it a digital IO out so we can plug into our high end stereos that take Optical [or coaxial] digital signals in.

And make it available real-soon-now - I'm not fussed about the price as this stuff doesn't come cheap - since this replaces a lot of existing hi-fi kit I don't expect it for $1000.
