Um... first things first, the EEE does not use a celeron, it uses either a VIA or a Atom N270. Secondly, the for any USB to pull what you said off, you need the USB OTG architecture and this cannot be accomplished unless either one has the architecture necessary to run this.
It is roughly feasible to pull off what your speaking off. It will not look pretty at all. You can't just shove the goods into an old ipod case and expect it to work like that. I spent 10 hours the other day doing flow modeling in my electronics design class, and the final product still looks ugly as hell. Start off with a good Cirrus logic or wolfsom DAC, We used a CDB4265 Evaluation board in my audio signal processing class. Then, you use a couple audio codec chip and an audio processor. Then you need an ARM processor to delegate all the jobs on it.Then, a volume control module. Then you would put a small eeprom chip in and then you will have to program that with the instruction on what to do with the audio. This is all designed without power or portability in mind. The next step after doing this would be portability. You would then run in to problems with battery life and such. You would then have to make use of the low powered chips.
Like I said the idea is feasible but it is most definitely not practical. The idea is actually a pretty good idea for a senior design project, designing a feasible audiophile music player.

In case u didnt know, the software (winamp, foobar, etc) doesnt decode on the fly, it use buffering which meant process the required data earlier and store in on RAM. Running winamp on celeron doesnt even consume 3% of cpu processing power. Because i'm not using any soundcard or stuff like that. I'm suggesting usage of audiophile grade usb dac/amp which can be used together with normal dap. Moreover, those usb soundcard doesnt has enough amp to drive full can. Regarding those pcmcia card type, those are normally crap too. Regards |
