Or has all new development stopped on the SB1 firmware? I imagine the small buffer size might also be a big obstacle given less than perfect Internet connections.

Will the squeezenetwork be ported to the squeezebox 1?

I bought two squeezeboxes and 4 days afterwards squeezebox2 was announced :(.
I would be more than happy to see that feature ported.

So? Will there be support for squeezebox1 or not?

Very unlikely. Squeezebox1 doesn't have sufficient CPU power or
memory to handle the additional overhead of streaming directly, etc.

Ok, thanks for the reply.

I run the squeezebox server software on a server connected to the internet, and access it with a squeezebox connected through the internet. I never experienced any buffer problems. Response time was very good either.

So I don't really see why the squeezebox wouldn't have enough cpu power?
I think it's more a time/money problem to rewrite a firmware for a device which isn't sold anymore. ;)
