Great letter and too bad TBS had different idea of the near future.

One has to ask, what do you think that will happen in next five years?

I presume you were inebriated when you typed that out.

That's to Steffen btw.

Thiis new layout is reall odd.

Akoro,

I don't know what's going to happen over the next five years, but I think B&O has been very erroneous in not embracing Apple more whole-heartedly and sooner.  I think Apple is a few chess moves ahead of all the other players, and I think any company would be poorly served by leadership that would bet against Apple's continued success.

On a personal level, the thing I feel that B&O does best is their self-amplified speaker technology.  Ironically, B&O's ALT speakers are probably amongst the most "future-proof" electronic devices in that they will have much more longevity than something like a flat panel monitor.  In other words, I believe in my heart that B&O could make an incredible living / profit by simply selling speakers that are Apple compatible (i.e. rather than making audio "head units" and TVs).  Accordingly, I hope the news about Loewe is wrong.

I get similar problems , it's particularly bad on ipad .

Quite agree with your post though  !!

It appears the rumourmongers have regurgitated this again:

This is better than the Nigerian lost treasure scam.  Wish I had been smart enough to think of it....twice.

Hello, my name is Mbutto Nijiki, and my company is going to be bought by Apple. I need to get help moving cash to the US in order to set up a bank account. If you help me by sending me money for the trip I will give you half of what Apple pays me...
