Yup, very true, and quite a shame really. Heck, I've seen SB players at BB in numerous different locations in the store, some stores had NONE! I travel a lot for biz and often have a great deal of time between appointments so I go window shopping. I actually bought a car on a biz trip once! The dangers of too much idle time. :) Keep in mind Sony has deep pockets to *nudge* (read: bribe) retailers to promote the Sony brand and/or particular products. But I'd also guess part of the blame for poor product placement at retail locations falls on Logitech itself. Not enough field reps? Do they have field reps? Assuming they do have (sufficient) field reps, I'd bet most know next to nothing about the SB devices, therefore they don't really understand how to market them, place them, train store employees for them. :( Just a guess, but keyboard & mouse reps may well be overlooking the SB players. -- toby10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69297 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
