Mmmm...as a fairly 'rookie' this raises questions.
"Logitech moving away from the Squeezebox product line????"

I can understand that the Squeezebox architecture and devices are for a
specific / niche market. Same goes for high end audio in general.

This concept will 100% surely fail to be succesfull in a big scale
consumer market. 
So SB is for SB audience and limited in scale. That is why the prices
can also be steep. 
But again, many other Logitech product will not. Like the Harmony
remotes, these will never hit big time in a consumer market IMHO


With what vision did Logitech buy Slim Devices and the Haromy remotes?
- To have it appeal to mass market?
- To broaden in a specific (niche) market? 
- Just whimsical expansion? 

I love the concept of the SB and its high-end tending design. But that
is why i am part of the niche market members.
