    Start PLAY-ing.... but only in 2012

    http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/11/15/bangolufsen-idUSL5E7MF1I420111115

    They're doing it again... Launching products after everyone has bought their Christmass presents... and then complaining about slow pick-up

    Please Tue! Do something about B&O's timing for product launches... It's been the same problem for years and years!

    (and... delivering a 2012 catalogue with discontinued products)

    The race for quality has no finish line- so technically, it's more like a death march.

    Oh my gosh, this is simply crazy - things just get worse here! I'm sure they will be made in China which is certainly known for fast production. Not sure about the quote " to ensure that it can supply sufficient quantities"  hmmm, last month Apple sold over 4 million iPhone 4s in 3 days!!!

    I was quite looking forward to seeing this PLAY range.

    Yep, my dealer confirmed this lunch that the PLAY range has been delayed until February - supplier issues I was told. Apparentely B&O need to guarantee a certain level of stock for the Apple Stores (understandable).

    Karel, I do agree re the 2012 catalogue - read through it in about 10 minutes. Not exciting at all.

    Another delay in product launches? Why doesn't that surprise me..?Whistle

    Maybe they'll launch something special for Valentine's Day instead of ChristmasBig Smile

    Reunion Island is greeting you!

    Very dull. I will look elsewhere this Christmas.

    A Beovision 10-40 in black and red fret on order, Beo4, Beo6, many A8's, a pair of white and yellow Form 2's, Beocom 4, 28 inch Avant RF DVD, Apple TV and a wife that loves this stuff as much as i do!

    Is the BeoLit 12 a BeoPlay product or... ?

    I rather feel sorry for the dealers & Sales people.  They had to invest so much money into opening these shops and then they don't have that much to sell... it's a real shame!
