Logitech today announced two new devices that can help move digital
music from your PC to your ears. The Squeezebox Radio (above, $199.99
list) is a Wi-Fi player that streams music from your home network--from
the Web, your subscription services, and your own collection of tunes.
Its color screen shows album art, track info, station info, and so on.
The
snazzy black Radio is only 5.12 by 8.66 inches, so its quite portable.
It features 6 preset buttons, a line-in jack, and even a built-in alarm
clock. Logitech claims the built-in speaker is of high-enough quality
to deliver music with very little distortion. You'll be able to buy an
accessory pack with a rechargeable battery and IR remote for $49.99 in
November.
The Squeezebox Touch Wi-Fi player ($299.99) serves as
an interface between your digital music and your existing music system.
Logitech says it will support high-quality sampling rates of up to 24
bits at 96 kHz. The Touch offers a 4.3-inch color touch screen as well
as a USB port and SD slot, for additional music sources.Look for this
to ship in December. (Check out a photo after the jump.)
Both
devices will require 256MB of RAM, 100MB hard drive space, and an
802.11b/g/n network. And for those who just can't get enough social
networking otherwise, both will offer Facebook and Flickr integration.
