I think one of Logitech's problems is going to be educating the workforce of the stores that'll sell the SB to give proper advice and support to those attracted by the proposition but lacking the technical knowledge in computing terms to get it running.
The Transporter's fine, since proper hi-fi stores will sell these. But you can imagine the scenario in Currys (in the UK) with SBs stacked up alongside toasters and food mixers. It's hard enough to find anyone to ask even a simple question. Try "wireless networks" and "CD ripping" and there *may* be problems. The SB has to find a mass-market identity. Lifestyle products have to work straight out of the box . . . -- morris_minor SB3 > Sonifex RB DAC1 > Musical Fidelity X10v3 > Sudgen Headmaster > Sennheiser HD 595 Michell Gyrodec SE DC [Tecnoarm, Goldring 1042] > Graham Slee Era V Gold > [Sugden Headmaster] . . .
