Hi Trev

I went to the Manchester HiFi show last sunday, which I enjoyed,
Logitech had no presence at all there - from a streaming perspective
Sonos had a stand as did Simple Audio (although I managed to miss it!)
- There was also the big hulk boxes of Naim, Cyrus etc which looked
big, bulky and a bit dated compared to Sonos/SB. One dealer had an
OliveHD unit, nice UI but not touch screen and again a very big unit.
Quite a few dealers were demo-ing iPad's into DACs.

I did overhear some people talking about SB products so I imagine some
existing/potential users attended however what is disappointing is that
the marketing is non existent for SB products.

I too have found nothing on display in HiFi shops also

Thanks
Ian
