CES 2008 - Logitech Squeezebox Duet

Logitech's Squeezebox Duet is a handheld receiver that uses 802.11g to wirelessly stream music throughout your house. The Duet is platform friendly, running on Macs, PCs and Linux machines and handling a buttload of non-DRM file formats, including Apple Lossless, FLAC, WMA Lossless as well as MP3, AAC, Ogg Vorbis, MP2, MusePack and WMA. The controller's 2.4-inch color LCD lets you browse your music library using a scroll-wheel along with sensitive buttons.

The Squeezebox Duet "network music system" comes with both receiver and controller for $400 and a two-year warranty, and will be available in the US and Europe this month. Additional receivers will cost $150 and additional controllers $300.
