You could have done what I did - gone for the Nokia N9. Great hardware,
great software - apart from all the bugs that could easily have been
ironed out if Nokia hadn't chucked out their whole Linux group. Sounds
familiar? :)
I keep seeing SONOS soundbar commercials on television, and I keep

I'm sure this wasn't their long term plan. They bought SD when
different people were involved at Logitech and I'd guess they figured

I also was once the proud owner of a Palm Pre, which is also on the

Congratulations, Logitech. You managed to get 2 items on this list of
7. It seems you can create great products, you just don't know how to
bring them to market.
