Olive One is now shipping: Pics from CAS




Hello,

Here's some pics of the Olive One. Sorry about the poor quality.

Personally, - I really, really, love the look of the thing, and it is wall mountable. However, - loading it up with hard drives, DACs, & amps is just another company not getting it. The price is really cheap though. They only had it in the ballroom, with headphones, - so it was therefore impossible to determine it's quality. The user interface is also a bit clunky and unintuitive compared to the squeezebox. I did notice that once you get to it, - it isn't horrible, (not too many more swipes and clicks), - but compared to the (amazing) Squeezebox interface, - it falls down.

Overall impression, (my dumb opinion), a fail..... But the "LOOK" of this thing is really beguiling.....

Where people had paid to see inside,
For entertainment they watch his body twist
Behind his eyes he says, 'I still exist.'"
