Branding is the reason people do a great deal of things, including
spending trillions of dollars each year on product X instead of having
spent it on product Y.

Like many others, the Logitech brand holds about as much appeal to me
as a smelly sweat sock.  But it's not hard to imagine that folks within
Logitech are rather fond of it.  Could be a mistake, or it may make no
difference at all.  The bigger question is what future products will
look like and how business will be conducted as they try to work out
what has so far appeared to be a messy acquisition.  My guess is that a
fair portion of the current user base is going to be somewhat put off as
they target the mass consumer market.

I would speculate that the radical brand change and the complete demise
of the 'Slim Devices' brand name is based on SD's relatively small
market penetration in a fairly new product category.  Where Logitech is
likely to target their future products, few people have heard of Slim
Devices.  We'll just have to wait and see how that works out for
everyone involved.
