Question: How low would the Transporter price have to go for you to buy
one?
    
- < $300
- $300 - $500
- $500 - $800
- $800 - $1000
- $1200 - $1500
- $1500 - $1800

I think LovelyFLAC's main point is _not_ that the Transporter is
overpriced, since we all agree it's not. Many people here have spent as
much, if not more, on interconnects! I think their point is "wouldn't it
be nice if Logitech also did the current Squeezebox in a standard ~16
inch enclosure"

The current Squeezebox is perfect for a lot of situations, such as on
top of a speaker or on a nice slim shelf. But there are some people
that would prefer to include it as part of their "stack" and have it
match their existing equipment. Currently the only way to achieve this
is to buy a Transporter, and for non-audiophiles that’s just not gonna
happen.

I do not know of any other manufacturer that sells a piece of equipment
in a variety of enclosures so you’d certainly be doing something no one
else does! So why not offer the SB3 in two flavours - asis and in a
Transporter-sized enclosure keeping all the innards the same for both?
Perhaps beef up the wireless antennas in the latter for those people
that need the extra range? I really don't think you'd lose Transporter
sales since you're targeting two different markets; the audiophiles and
the "style conscious" ;)
