Well, now it can play music with Linux as the OS. So now you can port any music
player you want (Ogg, MP3, etc) to the version of linux that's in the device and
any music format you
want your songs in will be available to you.
Not to mention it could also be a firewire-to-ethernet web server that could fit
in your pocket... ;)
