I thought I'd threat bump for this, I disagree. My dad's HiFi from the 60's is still very much operational. iphones become obsolete because of the non-replacable battery being cycled every day, and Apple's relentless software updating making it sluggish and soon not supportable. Boom has neither of those things. The Boom is much more akin to a piece of audio equipment than to an iphone, and frankly I think it very reasonable to expect it to have lasted quite a lot longer than it has. Dodgy PSU connectors, fading display, tacky front panel, knackering speakers. Pretty bad TBH. Perhaps because it was never all that expensive, it's somewhat excusable, but not to have a lifespan of 3 years and people thinking it's done really well to just about still be on life support after 10. .. and just to be clear I am a confirmed boom fan, with several of them in the house. Just a matter of opinion on Logitech's product quality (and of course their idiocy in EOLing the whole product set) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7125 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110803 _______________________________________________ Boom mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/boom
