Hi, all -

	Sean, are you planning on making any other "Slim-" devices? Here are a
few ideas I have:

	"SliMP3-2-part" - this would be an Ethernet MP3 player, like the
SliMP3, but the display and remote receiver would be in a separate unit
 from the Ethernet and audio ports. They would be connected by a
short-range RF (not 802.11 or Bluetooth, just character-at-a-time) to
relay display and IR information. This would be good for people who's
speakers aren't in the same room as their equipment - think "media
room". It would be annoying to have to go to another room to change what
song you're playing, or to run a long cable from your SliMP3 to your
stereo.

	"SlimData" - a unit that would relay data from external sensors
(temperature, motion, etc) to a server program. Similar to a SliMP3, but
with a bunch of ADCs instead of audio circuitry.

	Do these sound good? Any other ideas? Sean, I know you probably have
your hands full enough with the SliMP3 alone, but...

- Jacob
