My B&O Icons:
Torben in Sunday Times
Thanks. Found a link:
I think the writer was a little disrespectful about Torbens appearance! 😂
He's slim, immaculately groomed and sharply dressed (i've met him twice now) - but the guy makes him out to be some mad, wild haired professor shoe-horned into a Marks & Spencer suit !! The 'childlike zest' bit is accurate though!!
I'd love to do another, longer interview with him again. Perhaps this year - i can only ask.. 🙂

Interesting article. Torben sounds like a cool guy (heck, he drives a M5 and boats with a beer - what's not to like?).
After reading this article, I'm really interested to see what B&O is going to do with the BeoSound 5. It almost sounds like they're going to set up a Kaliedescape-like system ( http://www.kaleidescape.com/ ) that incorporates some sort of software (ala Amazon.com) that makes suggestions to you regarding future music choices.
I've made my overly pro-Apple slant well known in these forums, but that doesn't mean that I don't want B&O to succeed in whatever way they can. In fact, I want my current and future investments in my beloved B&O equipment to be somewhat future-proof. If B&O can do this on their own, then so be it, but please make it integrate well with other "players" so that I don't have to build more than one digital media library.
Wow he must have alot of energy, seems to be a very busy person but also appears to be reasonably good at dealing with stress, i think the article was well written and interesting.
Interesting also to see that he is an Aquarian, they are said to be eccentric and ahead of their own time...
rgbyhkr - a very informative and insightful post - thank you!
