Archos Arnova is ready to exterminate your clock radio, your Squeezebox too

The consumer electronics company with the phlegmatic name has just dropped its latest device on us, and for once it isn’t a tablet or some form of PMP . It’s the Archos Arnova, a fancy clock radio, with a 3.5-inch touchscreen in the middle plus the ability to connect to 12,000 streaming radio stations and 1,500 “web TV” channels too. If that’s not enough you can play media directly from an SD card or pull it over your local network via uPNP.

Spotify comes to Logitech Squeezebox, makes non-Europeans mildly jealous

Spotify still won’t say when its streaming music service will come to the US , but its 10 million songs will play on two more devices from here on out: starting today, the Logitech Squeezebox Touch and Squeezebox Radio can get their 320kbps groove on. ( Sonos , eat your heart out.) A free beta version of the music app should appear on the MySqueezebox website at any moment — though it doesn’t seem to be there right now — followed by “a full rollout expected in the very near future,” a promise which we can’t quite translate, but might mean support for even more devices down the road. Of course, Spotify’s something of a given for Logitech’s next Squeezebox, if it happens to run Android .

Squeezebox Touch ships at long last

Pulling back from the verge of a bottomless pit of vaporware despair comes the Squeezebox Touch , the latest in Logitech’s line of connected music players that had originally been slated to launch way back in December of last year. The device is the spiritual successor to the Squeezebox 3, eschewing the older model’s VFD display for a 4.3-inch color touchscreen LCD and adding in support for SD cards and USB mass storage devices directly from the unit itself.

Logitech Squeezebox Touch delayed, again

Logitech’s Squeezebox Touch has had a somewhat troubled launch since being announced back in September alongside the Squeezebox Radio, and it looks like the road to availability just got a bit bumpier. While Logitech isn’t saying anything officially itself just yet, a Slim Devices developer has now posted on the official Squeezebox forums that we’re still looking at “a couple of months until release” — which is well off Logitech’s most recent promise of a February release date, and might even bump up against its future Android-based device .

Logitech working on "ground-breaking" Android device according to job posting

While we’re all sitting around waiting on the Squeezebox Touch to break into the world of the officially released, it’s nice to take a little time to ponder what the next round of media products from Logitech might look like. A clue (and a pretty big one) has been found in a job posting for an “Android Applications Developer” on a contract basis, looking for a “a super-star engineer” who has written “world-class Android applications” to work on “a ground-breaking new product that will give users access a to broader range of media than ever before.” It could be anything, but given the extremely limited selection of apps we’ve seen implemented for the Radio we wouldn’t be surprised if Logitech weren’t going open source for its next offering in the segment — but we certainly wouldn’t turn down an Android-packing Harmony, either
