If you mean LMS that is completely unrelated to the failure of the Revue. Revue has been out for over a year, only now is LMS a part of the defunct Revue. I'd bet the vast majority of Revue and Roku type buyers never even use the "server" aspects of these boxes. Maybe a slightly higher number of users might try playing some of their mp3's on them, but the pics & video section are largely not utilized in regards to ones own collection. Of the four Roku players currently available only one (the $99 unit) even has a USB port. People mostly buy these for the content, server aspects go widely unused. In this consumer hardware category, content is everything, and the Revue had next to no content. Even if GoogleTV actually worked as expected it would still relegate the Revue into the "why buy a Revue when a Roku box at half the price has 100 times more content" category. ;) I'd assume they were planning to add more content, guess we'll never know. But they made no effort to add much (any?) content while they were waiting for GoogleTV to get their act together. -- toby10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91532 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
