But the world is full of "cute" lifestyle products, and as a general rule a lot of them are hopeless.
Therefore, when one is faced with something that looks like a lifestyle product, the psychological instinct is to start with an assumption that it's probably mainly form and not much function. It's just not possible to thoroughly research every option, so a lot of people will remove items from the shortlist based on the "it looks like a duck, so it's unlikely to be a swan" premise. -- cliveb Transporter -> ATC SCM100A ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliveb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=348 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40309 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
