A lot of what came out after the acquisition were projects that were already in-flight. What's come out since have been variations on those themes. The credit Logtech gets, in my mind anyway, is not getting in the way of those in-flight projects. What happens next I think will be very telling since anything new coming out now is probably something dreamed up by Logitech without the benefit of Dean or Sean. Hopfully the distribution issues we've seen as of late aren't an indicator of things to come! :-). I look forward to what is next too! I can't wait for my Touch to be delivered - it seems like it will have been worth the wait. I'm sure a boom with a touch screen, or at least a color display, will show up at some point. -- maggior Rich --------- Setup: 2 SB3s, 4 Booms, 1 Duet, 1 Receiver, 1 Touch (on order).
