Most people are happy with new technology so long as they don't have to become junior engineers to use it. If the image or market perception of, or user experience with, a product feature is that it is too complicated, customers will be turned away. Example - BMW iDrive. Intended to be a desired feature, it turned out to be a big negative. Several revs later, BMW still hasn't fully shaken that off. Many other examples. Much of Squeeze product line's features add unneeded and unwanted baggage that the average potential customer may be put off by. That's my view. And based on Michael's comments, people at the company have the same concern. -- Goodsounds ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Goodsounds's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14201 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53406 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
