Well I would happily buy a signed SB3, but I'm in the UK so it's a
little difficult. I don't even need one, I already have more players
than rooms in my appartment!

LOL yeah ...

Want to see how this is evolving (the product, the business concept,
AND the fun inhouse).

So, okay, I promise to buy an additional Squeezebox Controller in Q1,
2009. *grin* (This year's christmas SB3 is already on the way,
hopefully.)

 They must have hid this batch hidden somewhere, since they've been
 shipping Logitech branded units for ages.

Snarly wins the prize... that's exactly what happened.

Re: [slim] End of the line for Squeezebox Classic?

2008-12-15 Thread maggior

Perhaps its just a creative way to drum up some additional sales during
these poor economic conditions.

I'd imagine that the slim devices team is feeling some pressure to move
product.  It's not easy being in a non essential division of a large
tech company.

I went through this with Intel.  If you weren't part of the core
business and weren't contribuing a signficant amount of revenue to the
bottom line, you worried for your survial when times got tough.  We had
nothing to do with making CPUs, so ultimately the division I worked for
was sold off and subsequently downsized.

The slim devices team isn't making mice or keyboards, so...

They could have been planning this for aag too, just
never got around to actually signing them all until now. Too busy with
Boom and 7.2 then 7.3 perhaps? :)

If anybody is really desperate for an original Slim Devices faceplate, I
have a couple or three NOS.  Make me an offer ...

(If you offer high enough, I'll promise not to sign it!)

[slim] End of the line for Squeezebox Classic?

2008-12-13 Thread yeomanspc

I see in the on-line shop the squeezebox classic signature edition with
the description..The last of the original Slim Devices Squeezeboxes. 
Does this mean SD are phasing the classic out, and if so, what is the
replacement?  I have a couple of Duets, a couple of classics,  and 6
Slimp3/SB1/2 vintage that I'd probably refresh with classic style over
next 12 months .. I like the display.. will this style of player still
be an option in the future?

They shouldn#8217;t! It#8217;s just the »perfect« box for some setups.

What I really believe is that the signed editions are just the last
ones with the original »slim devices« logo on the front (it#8217;s
»Logitech« now). These are going to be real collector#8217;s items
soon ;-)

Is it not just that future production of the Squeezebox is now branded
-Logitech?-

No, I doubt this is the end of the Classic any time soon.  They probably
just found a small pile of Slimdevices branded Classics instead of the
current Logitech branded ones.
