Thanks. That solves one problem for me anyway. The cost of solid state and disc memory is dropping like a rock. Saw a Maxtor outboard 200G drive for $79 after rebate. That's just incredible. Now the only thing that keeps me from buying an Olive is no video out or imbedded on screen display(OSD). Once I get the thing full of WAV files I don't want to have to go near it again. I operate all of my audio and video devices via a Home Theater Master Universal Remote and navigate the various menu's via their native OSD's via my 60" Sony LCD RPTV from 15 feet away. I think they missed the boat there. Seems like they should have included VGA out and a keyboard interface at the very least or some type of TV video out and an OSD with navigation button on remote. The concept is almost fully realized. I have been thinking about spec'ing out a PC for several years with all these features and got it down to around $1000. The only thing that kept me from doing it was and acceptable "jukebox" type program for storing, accessing and playing WAV files.

Personally I have been never been a fan of do all devices, they never seem to do anything well, just good enough. I do see your point but I am glad olive won’t add it unitl it does not effect the sound quality.

Thanks for your interest..

P.S Will post a Black Muscia picture latter today.

There is now a 750GB Olive Opus. The Unit retails for 3999.00.

We should have some non stock photos soon as we wait for our own model to arrive!
