It's funny, everyone is in love with their smartphone, but the reality
is it's not a great music player. Logitech has a niche market and they
really need to focus on it.

Radio - Do people use smartphones as alarms? I would much rather spend
$100 on the Radio, than $20 for a crappy clock radio. The problem is
Logitech can't seem to get the alarm code right, so unless you want to
run your own server I wouldn't recommend it.

Boom - Sometimes it's nice to listen to music without earbuds. What
better portable music device than one that can play internet radio
stations from around the world, Pandora, Sirius, and your entire music
collection. The problem here is they forgot to offer a builtin battery
pack to make it truly portable.

Touch - Us old timers still enjoy listening to music that fills the
room. What better way to get all the content mentioned above to your
hifi audio system. The problem here is that todays generation has been
taught to listen to low bitrate music through $10 earbuds. They are
happy with it because they don't know what their missing.

So the bottom line is that Logitech should do a better job of marketing
their products. Advertise, work with retailers for product placement,
and make the products usable to the average music lover. If all this
was done right, every household would have at least one Radio as an
alarm clock and possibly a Boom or Touch. Unfortunately, we are a long
way from those numbers.
