True, the economic downturn would have been catostrophic for the old Slim Devices erland;534846 Wrote: > I think we have to remember a few things: > - The people reading this thread is not the people that should read > this critique.

They probably are more frustrated than us users with the sales issues. With all of the work they've put in, I'm sure they just want to see this thing succeed! erland;534846 Wrote: > I think we have to remember a few things: > I feel that its right to critique Logitech when they aren't doing their > job but we might need to think about who is reading the critique.

I think he, as the product/program manager is the guy that should hear about this stuff. The sales folks aren't going to care - they get paid if they sell 100 keyboards or 2 SB products. They are going to sell what they can sell. Mikey should be FUMING and raking the sales org over the coals - they are failing to get his product out the door. erland;534846 Wrote: > > Still, we have to give Logitech some credit, they have actually > succeeded in producing the top audio streaming devices on the market. > Both the Touch and Radio have so much potential and we have only seen > the top of the ice berg so far.

They should do what they can to avoid that in the future. -- maggior Rich --------- Setup: 2 SB3s, 4 Booms, 1 Duet, 1 Receiver, 1 Touch (on order).
