I recommend you forego the Squeezebox/Transporter route and just use a laptop, where you could choose your own software, preferrably more competent than Logitech's. You could get a Network Attached Storage to move the hard drive (the most noisy component on a computer) to another room, connected through your internet. The laptop -- or even better, fanless HTPC -- would use an external USB DAC directly to your sound system. The final component is optional; for convenience, you could get either an iPhone, or use a PDA, or one of those battery operated micro-laptops, or maybe even a good universal remote.
The laptop pulls music from your NAS music server, your phone/PDA controls acts as a remote control.
Because all hard drives eventually fail, make sure the NAS unit supports RAID.
