Which means that they will probably in the stationary audio segment
focus on:
- AirPlay speakers
- Bluetooth speakers
- iOS docking stations with built-in speakers

It would be strange if they would shutdown UE Smart Radio already now,
but I suspect it will be safely placed in the backseat and their focus
in this segment will be on the above products. If they like to continue
doing devices similar to UE Smart Radio they need to lower the price a
lot so it can be targeted to the mass market or increase the
functionality a lot so it can compete with Sonos, currently it's placed
in the middle with too little functionality and too high price.
