Marshall Acton III in the house!
----------------
Matthew Jones on De-Convergance (Ted mentioned on the
last show in relation to FiiO’s PMP) I think you are right on
the whole de-convergence thing Ted.
I think the whole convergence experiment was great fun - and we’ve
taken it a long way - but it has arguably has culminated in a “Jack
of all trades/master of none” peak, where the separate components
are prevented from reaching their full potential, or doing things
that might improve their individual capabilities, if doing so
doesn’t compliment the vision of the converged device.
If you are right, and we start to focus more on standalone products, I think it can only be a good thing - and certainly more fun for the tech community!
