Not sure that's the case these days, at least not in the media segment,
I'm fairly sure both Squeezebox and Revue is more software than
hardware.

I'm guessing they plan to offer something better than Twonky, Tversity,
MiniDLNA, WMP and others. It doesn't sound like that's the case on short
terms but there has to be some plan on longer terms else the whole LMS
effort is pretty pointless, why invest in developing your own server if
someone else has already done it for you more or less for free ?
If LMS video/picture part is opened up for third party plugins in
similar fashion as the audio part, it can become something really
great. Hopefully someone within Logitech understands this.
