If you block the vents then there's a chance it will get uncomfortably hot. If you put the empeg into an enclosure the size of an average stereo component, then there should be enough breathing room for it. Further, if it is not to be removable, then you could mount it with the top cover off. You could also easily add a quiet fan (you get what you pay for with fans, so don't skimp if that's a step you'll take).

I'm looking forward to seeing what sorts of things people some up with. I'm sure with the xtra units there will be more exploration into things like home docks. Not to mention all the new people that have joined the BBS in the past two weeks.
