lets not kid ourselves. there is a *tiny* potential customer base for

If hardware manufactures wanted their products to have good support on

I still don't understand what manufactures are protecting by not releasing

I don't have any Philips hardware, but there is a principal here.
Well, the DSP chip on the Acoustic Edge series_does_ have a 68 page

That you can't buy this is no excuse as it's online on the O'Reilly site
