TripEnglish: I can't believe how well this thing is selling.
I can believe it, because I wanted one the minute I saw the first pictures. It is a real problem solver for those who do not want or need a Link-speaker (with the wiring/Adapters) or who are fine with a "dock" as a main stereo-system. If I look at my brother and his wife (both doctors) they are totally o.k. with a (horrible sounding btw) iPod dock. I will try to convince them to buy a Beosound 8 on x-mas, when the Beosound 8 will be officially given to my wife.
In fact it is wise move by B&O to create something for the mass-market, they need to make profit to please the shareholders - and with this dock they get a higher visibility and younger customers - especially because it sounds great (for a dock again).
Personally, I believe that the Beo6 will be a huge success too! When the protocoll is "reverse-engineered" this thing will get THE standard-remote for home-cinema owners (think of Beosound 5 for movies). I already can see a software running a PC/Mac that will show Movie covers over Masterlink. When B&O finally will create a great BluRay Player/changer that works with "managed-copies" which can be streamed over Beonet (covers/descriptions shown on Beo6) they really will be back again. With the BV10 they already have an outstanding product.
Sounds like this is the right moment to buy B&O stocks :-)
