Pioneer's new A/V receivers have some built in technology that I'd love to see on a B&O audio or video device:
Why can't B&O do this?
I'm sure B&O arekeeping their eyes on the market. Whether something happens or not is a waiting game. 3D in my opinion is rubbish and I dont think it will last.
about 10% of people can't 'see' the 3D effect - and I must admit I was a sceptic until I saw it in action. A number of broadcasters worldwide are starting transmissions this year - Canal+, Sky, Skylife and DirecTV. The electronics over and above that of a true HD screen only adds about $100 to the build of materials.
There are a number of 3D technologies out there - some better than others - it really depends on what you have seen as to whether it is working well for you or not.
Forget the 3D component of the device... you don't have to use it...
I think the bigger point was the iPhone/Touch compatibility, as well as the BT.
Oh, and pre-ordering for $229 USD! 😉
To me this is a gimmick. I like my Beo 4 and even though I play music every now and then through my ATV and Ipod TOuch remote I want something from B&O that matches the style of the Beo 4.
I don't get much enjoyment out of my ATV ITouch, I am old school I guess, give me something as magic as the BC2 angel wings or BS9000 CD tray.
it's not that I wouldn't appreciate the Iphone integration as a nice to have add on but I would not want them to put this over a solid 2 way remote.
that's what the ipad's for..
