Any date on the removal of the Samsung logo from the Serene??.... and any possibility of an upgrade to the Serene with the addition of an 850MHz band?? The fourth band would make connectivity in the US much more solid.

I doubt that we'll see the new digital masterlink system fully launched in the next fiscal, nor will be see the BeoVision 8-40 or the 7-52 until the next fiscal. I'd love to be wrong, but it doesn't seem like those launches will roll out that quickly. 

Otherwise these predictions are in line with what I know.

As usual it´s difficult to predict what new products will be launched as stated in the fiscal report. I hope BV7-52 and BV8-40 will be launched this season. Peter Thostrup also mentioned a new cheaper BeoVision, but I doubt we will see it this year. I´m also looking forward to see what kind of ideas the CEO have. The biggest new product for me is BS5. Looking forward to this one, hope they will release some pics soon.

Only that they will use the same platform they use for BV8. But these plans are very new! No info about design etc.

The BV8 is already an ultra striped-down Beovision... What do they want to remove from it to produce a cheaper Beovision? (For me the only thing that is better thant a kikinoko TV on the BV8 is its sound... If they remove that, it will just be a standard TV, not a Beovision). Maybe they will just put a B&O logo on a Samsung TV???

I think that the new CEO will have a very different approach than TBS, who brought us such technological achievements as the Samsung logo. TBS seemed to focus on building the brand in ways that were out of synch with our core values.
