I have not been in contact with the Sage folks, but I'll look into it. I haven't seen any reviews with photos of the music interface.

I wouldn't hold my breath on the Popcorn Hour getting a better native music interface. There hasn't been much discussion of it, the closest thing was this post made 4/6/08:

[PH] Syabas will assign engineering resource in music playback improvement on mid April. This may takes about few weeks to develop.

You could spend a lifetime catching up to Apple in th music department, it's a Fool's Journey. Syabas is focusing on what they already do better than anyone out there: play video.

It's an annoyance, for sure, but you may want to consider an separate, inexpensive solution for music. For $130, I like my Zune with AV dock/remote and wireless sync, but that's certainly a hacked together solution.

Hopefully Syabas will come through with a better native app, or better http server software to address the music interface, bu if you want the video, I wouldn't hold off on buying a Popcorn hour until they do.
