The statement I took exception to was that work on a squeeze boombox would "mark the beginning of the end" for the audiophile. Far from it. Slim has already demonstrated that they can have a reasonable niche market at the low and high ends of the price spectrum (quality discussion aside). Investing effort in the low-end in no way indicates an abandonment of the high end. I just don't see it.
Also, FWIW, consider that the R&D for a portable squeezebox would be relatively low. With the SB2/3 product already in existence, productizing it into a portable solution would be a far cry from engineering from scratch. Make it portable, make it modular. cheers, #!/ben -- bklaas "the Nokia770 skin guy" http://www.last.fm/user/bklaas/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bklaas's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=25805 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
