The geeks have been running specials on various omnifi pieces...

They have the Omnifi Media Streamer w/802.11b USB Adapter right now for $69.99 (geek special so no coupon codes...) to do with this.

Above unit is computer to car... this unit is computer to stereo IIRC. They had a whole set for like $150 not long ago, I should have bought it.

They've had this for $50 on their "green light" specials (every afternoon) off and on for the last couple of weeks .

I looked and didn't bite, its another of those abandoned hardware bits with some open source support, but nothing going on from Rockford, specifically no firmware updates so the open source stuff is limited to the source streamer and some kind of shell running on the player. Also the open support has split into two groups, one on Yahoo groups and one on linuxfi.com, but activity is very thin. Being stuck with the old slow wireless speed doesn't help either.

OTOH if the next generation products all are locked down with copyright management stuff, older open sourced support items may look pretty good.
