^ AcePlayer Pro is free today. They give free promotions every now and then. Too bad I paid $5.99 already.......
Odd, I was able to download Aceplayer pro on my ipad for free, could then get in on my iphone for free.
Read through the manual for the Seagate Satellite, looks like a great portable solution in conjunction with flac player for an idevice. There have been mixed reviews on Amazon, some of which were addressed by the manufacturer.
Hopefully you'll get if figured out in time for our trip to Negril over Christmas so I can enjoy a large library of hi-res Flac streaming from the deck of our villa to my chair on the beach
I wonder if there's some way to get a macbook to transmit files via it's own wifi network to stream to a portable device in a similar fashion.
Check into StreamToMe (iDevice) and ServeToMe (computer). I've used it on a LAN, but it's supposed to work over the internet or 3G wireless as well.
Thraex, I certainly appreciate your work on this. Please keep me up to date with your findings. I'm particularly interested in seeing if the Seagate Satellite works well in conjunction with one of the flac players.

I've any kind of player apps (nearly 30), none is perfect and each works with a specific server even if they're all DLNA/UPnP.

That was my conclusion as well, with those three SAMBA and flac streaming apps that I tried. You will never know unless you try them all. My god, you tried 30 already?!
That is also why I support Thraex here. He worked really hard there. It is a lot of work to try each and every configuration/app.
For the Patriot Gauntlet Node or similar portable NAS, maybe there's a possibility to install OpenFilter http://openfiler.com/ (NAS open software) with LMS (istructions here http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/OpenFilerInstallationGuide ) to use iPeng, but since I'll not buy PGN and it's not easy to do, I'll not test it, anyone want to try and report back here?
