Short answer? Yes. Longer answer? The cultures of large organizations, whether governmental, corporate, religious or whatever, are actually quite insular. Their primary tendency is to believe their own PR. They are ready with plenty of excuses within the organization to salve their conscious or cover their rear as the case may be. I'd not hesitate to place a large wager that if the Squeezebox enthusiasts remain politely quiet on the sidelines while Logitech continues to fumble through this mess, that would not be taken by Logitech as anything other than confirmation they were at their peak of their marketing and public relations skills. Just speaking for myself, that is certainly not the conclusion I'd like Logitech to come to regarding their performance. While you're right that there can be aspects of product development that delay release which are beyond the control of a company, the one aspect in which they retail full control is communications. They've done a poor job in this area. In fact, they could have probably hired Larry, Moe and Curly to manage this campaign and gotten better results. They deserve to be called out. -- mlsstl ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mlsstl's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9598 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=76286 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
