Plus, the Logitech entry in that race has not gotten good reviews. Not
clear to me that its Logitech's fault, but the product can't be selling.

I agree that $59 for a box is death. You have to give Best Buy at least
$10, with distribution, etc. the Bill of Materials cost is only going to
work at huge volumes. Huge volumes means video and Hulu/Netflix.

While I think the Touch is very cool, at $300 retail, its a niche
product. I don't think Logitech is interested in niche products. But I
don't have any special insight into this.
