A Squeebox client based on a Raspberry Pi

This is my current project. A Raspberry Pi based music player based on Squeezbox(tm).
     

• It will use this 20W digital amplifier:

• I am planning to show the CD cover on a small 1.8" color TFT from Saintsmart: http://www.ebay.de/itm/SainSmart-1-8-128X160-SPI-TFT-LCD-Display-Modul-SD-Card-Socket-fur-Arduino-/400506615977?pt=Wissenschaftliche_Ger%C3%A4te&hash=item5d400df8a9
• A small 433MHz transmitter can switch a remote control AC Power Plug. Used to switch the Raspberry Pi itself off:

• A harddisk with all music on it will be installed to be independend from network
• Logitech Media Server as the Streaming server
