Tomaz, How would it work? I see that with the screen turned on there are two axis similar to the BeoSound 5. Do they correspond to the wheel controls on either side of the screen? Please walk us through features & operation. Thanks, T

Peter, I agree that the two issues you'd need to solve are the HDCP handshake and the resolution. If the converter doesn't identify itself as a TV, it may not work. I've had this issue with other combinations of devices and wound up using an Atlona balun specially designed to store the EDID data so that the devices not longer had to shake

Congratulations! Enjoy your new toy!

Electrified, this is not interesting for anyone else. We all have access to 8th grade logic text books. If you want to keep embarrassing yourself, please pm me and do it privately.

Slightly off-topic, but Tomaz' design makes me think of just how difficult the inclusion of an acoustic lens is in an overall design. I personally thought it was the achilles heel of the BeoVision 9. I think it looks best incorporated in the BeoLab 9s, but the best way I've seen to deal with it is mechanical motion such as in the dashboards

Tomaz, Anyone who can put up an alternative design like that has the right to the last word. See you on the outside. Well done. Trip

To you as well, SP. I really do like to spar and I hope that no one takes my gambits as anything other than an impassioned defense of a brand that I've tied my livelihood to. I've been a fan for way longer than I've drawn a paycheck and look forward to the next generation of products. I look forward to more debate in the new year! -T

[quote user="ojibway"] I think it is about expectations - what you (or I) have grown to expect from B&O. Like a fine wine from well known vineyard. And, just because we've come to expect iThingies to be 'docked' doesn't mean they have to be. I get quite annoyed when I want to use my iPhone when it is docked. It is not easy

[quote user="Electrified"] [quote user="TripEnglish"] Visually balanced means that the visible elements, when viewed from the front, are similar in proportion when an iPad is docked on top. The transom is thick enough, vertically, to look as though it can support the iPad (though the device is really very light), and the speakers

Being willfully obtuse doesn't impress girls.
