Your memory is a little flawed. When the TP first came out, it did have a Slim Devices logo on the front. (Mine has one).
It was only after Logitech bought out the company that the logo changed to "transporter" (almost certainly for the very reason you surmise - no audiophile would want a Logitech logo in their rack). Personally I think (and always thought) that Logitech was entirely the wrong company to buy out Slim Devices. They probably realised that streaming was a future growth area and snapped up a company that was available for (what is to them) petty cash. Sure, they probably did a bit of research and understood how the devices worked, but I get the feeling that nobody in Logitech understood the Slim Devices vision. -- cliveb Transporter -> ATC SCM100A ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliveb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=348 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91090 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
