Why doesn't anyone make this product??!?!

I have a wireless network in my house. My wireless network can easily
reach outside and where I park my car. How easy would it be to have a
device which contains at least 128 megs of ram that would allow me to
connect to it wirelessly through my wireless network and send mp3's to
it.

This technology has been here for some time. I can't believe a
product has not been made yet which can easily do this.

Get a laptop, wireless internet cards, wireless router. Network the laptop
to the main computer. Place the laptop in the car, and run a cable from the
line out on the laptop to the stereos aux (or another method). Now you have
access in the car to your mp3's inside the house, and when you play them
it'll go thru the line out in to the cars system

Motorola was planning to make something like this. There was (is?) a
company called SimpleFi which intended to make a series of wireless
mp3 devices to be used throughout the home, including linking up with
a car-based MP3 player.

I saw pre-release info on this last spring (14 mos ago), but I can
only find info on their home-based devices now, and the reviews
haven't been too positive.

I would like to see some devices like that too...

Till then, there is the Kenwood Music Keg whick holds gigs and will
interface via USB and sony makes a head unit or two that take a Sony Memory
stick, neither are wireless solutions, but with both solutions, you can take
the mem stiick or cartridge into your house, plug it ito the USB interface
and move MP3 or whatever file type back and fourth...

I think I'm gonna go with the Music Keg as soon as I can save up for it...

I agree 100%. Being a Windows programmer, I know it can be done,
and easily, given the correct type of interface. That is my
problem, I write software, but I am not able to design the hardware.
If there is a electrical engineering type out there that has the
ability to design the interface, I would be happy to work with you
to actually get something that works.
