We can debate what constitutes "mass market", but I would say that neither the current SB line or even a Touch that is fully capable of running without an external is destined for the mass market. I was just at my massage therapist, and here's the mass-market Logitech music device she was using: http://www.logitech.com/en-us/speakers-audio/ipod-mp3-speakers/devices/4320
Alternatively, for people who want to hear through a better audio system there are endless mass-market iPod docks that connect to stereo or A/V systems. People can argue that Linux or SBS or client-server architectures are for "geeks", but if that's the case then so are lossless codecs, decent tagging, etc. And many companies are successful catering to these geeks. Not ubiquitous like Coca Cola or Windows, but successful nonetheless. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89143 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
