It's awfully hard to see them keeping two products at the same price point with the same basic function (even if the details are very different). Maybe Logitech is out to kill the SB, but I'm hoping that we'll end up with a win-win convergence. Like the slick remote many have been craving, while maintaining SB's support for lossless formats and top-notch hardware.
But then I read lines like this (from the web page on the the Logitech product) and get more pessimistic.
