NuVo releases Wireless USB Syncing Device for NV-M3 Music Server

Those not deterred by the NV-M3 Music Server's rather steep pricetag may be interested in knowing that a hard-wired connection is no longer necessary, making the previously unattractive device a bit more palatable. NuVo's Wireless USB Syncing Device (NV-USBW) enables the NV-M3 (pictured) to be installed without regard for where the user's PC is, as the Wireless-G connection that is provided enables PlaysForSure tunes to be streamed sans cabling anywhere within the home. That being said, we sincerely hope you didn't expect this thing to be cheap -- otherwise, the $399 pricetag for the NV-USBW is likely to be a real stunner.

What does this do that a (much cheaper) Apple Airport Express does not?

It has a 160GB hard drive so you can store as well as stream music. This means that you don't "need" to have your computer on just to listen to music (if you've a component stereo system).
