It is reading a comment about something else by a company person in a forum that probably isn't followed by a very large percentage of the customers and then imputing a conclusion from it.
I understand Logitech's general philosophy concerning new products, but the Touch has had some twists and turns in the process that don't normally get public exposure. Once events get to a certain point, continuing to follow the bureaucratic script is rather like an army continuing to follow battle plans that have been uncovered by the enemy and aren't working well. One normally moves to Plan B at that point. Of course, it is Logitech's company to run as they wish, but I'd have to agree with some of the other posts I've read that Logitech isn't doing a very good job with this, especially as relates to their pre-order customers who have been left hanging. Whatever good buzz they got from that is long since gone and they seem content to let it grow more negative by the day. I say that as someone who did not pre-order and have no plans to buy one in the near future. But hunkering down and sticking to the script doesn't strike me as the better PR strategy for them any more. Just my 2 cents. -- mlsstl ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mlsstl's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9598 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72159 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
