Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
I have a dock set up next to the stereo in my bedroom. And I can stream MP3s to the TiVo for music in the living room.
I do need a good bathroom music solution, though.
My current Mini thinking is to put one in the living room hooked up to the TV with any video files I have, and a simpler method of playing music through the TV speakers. Now with this streaming and Front Row stuff, it gets cooler. Would I get a keyboard and mouse? Perhaps not, if I can VNC it and FrontRow it. Not permanently.
I want the iPod stereo. HMOG, I want it. I just haven't figured out if it would work with my 4thGen iPod.
I think Jobs said it would work with all iPods ever sold....
Apple Store is back up: [link]
eta: Slow as fuck, though.

All iPods with a dock connector.

You can attach a Shuffle to the back. But then you're losing most of the integration, right?
Any other iPods that don't have the dock connector?
What's FrontRow?
Apple's remote control software, for watching movies and playing music. Which only comes with new models, so I can't install it on my G5, even though it's sitting in my living room.

That's incredibly lame. For some reason (probably because I didn't care enough to do the research) I had the idea that it was just the media center front end for showing slideshows and such. I didn't realize it was specifically tied to the remote.
