Compaq Brings Back iPaq Music Center, Drops Price

scaramush writes: "After initially pulling it from the market, Compaq has re-released the iPaq Music Center, complete with a $600 price drop (was $999, now $399). The size of a 17" standard component, the music center features a 20 gig HD, or as the copy breathlessly enthuses, "Enough capacity for nearly 400 audio CDs or 5,000 individual songs". Slashdot has covered similar devices like the Rio Central, which (at the moment) costs $1500. Will this price point be enough to lure users?" The site doesn't mention whether there will be any onerous playback-restriction technology included as a free bonus.

You better get ready

Wait till you see what I am about to release. It will blow your mind. Burn and rip and share. Open Source. Stop me if you think you can. HaHa.

Internet Radio from around the world?

From the product description:

Lets you listen to Internet radio stations from around the world.

Of course the internet radio staions are from "around the world". All the US ones are being shut down!
