The Olive Musica ($1,099 direct) is part of the next wave of home stereo components. This is no ordinary CD player. It runs Linux on a PowerPC processor and includes a built-in 802.11g Wi-Fi access point, a 160GB hard drive, numerous ports, analog and digital I/O ports, and generally one hell of an audio feature set. The device can rip and burn CDs and then copy music directly to an Apple iPod. You can learn more about this device over at PC Mag's full review. They were impressed but point out it doesn't support WMA nor DRM or Apple Lossless.
