A new motherboard with all the newest features : gigabit ethernet...

Could we all agree once and for all to drop the constant, obligatory refernces to GigE?

If anyone can show me a combination of hardware that could fit into the empeg (redesigned or not) that could actually utilize GigE to capacity (as well as show any kind of reasonable NEED for it) I'll PayPal you $5.

I'm sorry if I'm being an ass, but it's getting a bit sad. If you could (somehow) cram drives capable of a sustained 80MB / second into the empeg, you still would only be utilizing about 640 megabit.

Not to mention, do you really need to be able to change out all the music on a twin 80gb empeg in 32 minutes?

I DO however agree on everything else: Color LCD, more RAM, video out, Firewire/USB2, etc.
