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

Re: [slim] End of the line for Squeezebox Classic?
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... -- maggior Rich - Setup: 2 SB3s, 1 duet, 1 receiver.

[slim] End of the line for Squeezebox Classic?
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? -- yeomanspc yeomanspc's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=249 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=56341 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] End of the line for Squeezebox Classic?
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).

No, I doubt this is the end of the Classic any time soon.
