Weird how brand names affect things... the Logitech brand would certainly do better in a BestBuy, but not for expensive stuff... On the other hand, if they label it right, "Logitech SlimDevices" or something, they may do okay in high end audio shops: many of them do sell Harmony remotes which are getting more and more Logitech logos and less Harmony every packaging change... so there is somewhat of a foothold for them there. Hard to say: people are so fickle with toys sometimes.... -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33011 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
