Does not B&O produce the clickwheels of Apple Ipods? That's what my retailer told me when presenting the Beosound 3...

Cheers, Laurent.

How i would laugh if it was a fake photo!! πŸ˜‚

It would show a great sense of humour, and make many of us quite happy!

Relief I think is the word, then again am not sure what Lee would be relieved over (if you excuse the phrase) either the shocking state of B&O fakes these days or the joy in the fact he can now comfortably book himself into the Struer Manicure Centre and get the service he deserves (again if you pardon the pun) 😁

Oh lordy it's all turning very double entendre – I'll get me coat πŸ˜‚

Hi all, this is my first post here, however I’m a big B&O fan. I think that from one side the BeoSound 6 has some unique high-end stylistic, it looks very futuristic as any other B&O products do, but not that much uniquely and inspiring as it should be. I don’t like portable player so I wouldn't comment on price tag and anything else as for me only full blooded audio system makes sense. I do hope it is a prototype and a case study, and if released it will be something worth saying WOW.

It's ugly and overpriced to me. I have a 8GB Ipod Nano with A8 earphones. The simplicity from the portable player without screen looks more cool to me. This looks very cheap and not enough memory. The click-wheel is more user-friendly than a scroll-wheel

As usual, I'm disappointed that so many people make such strong reservations about products before they've even seen them!

From the pictures I've seen, it doesn't look that great, but as I said, they're only pictures. BeoLab 5s aren't that special until you hear them, the BeoVision 9 isn't that special until you see it, the BeoSound 2 isn't that special until you feel/use/hear it. It's the same for any B&O product, including the BeoSound 6. 

There's nothing wrong with judging a picture, but judgig the design for the whole product just from a picture isn't possible. Take the BeoVision 9 for an example, or the BeoLab 9s. Everybody thought they looked appalling when they saw the pictures. It's only once you've seen it in the flesh, touched it and used it that you can really truly judge a design.
