I think Trip's basket of Kittens must be pulling his leg. A beer cooler, now that I could understand.
I do think it will be interesting to see how B&O address the different situations presented by an audio-only BS-5 set up and one involving a BV-7 or 9.

Gosh Darn these Public access computers!

OK ... so the BeoMaster5 is a MS PC while the BeoSound5 is a mini LCD screen! Simple. I'll stick with my Apple iTouch thanks very much. nlb.

It was initially discussed as optional, but the new CEO has confirmed our long-term commitment to spreadable meats. Expect the doors of the BeoCenter 2 to open to a tin of duck pate by fiscal year 09/10.

(I've already said too much)

It obviously exists. See link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humour#Understanding_humour
I meant more along the lines of a press release or some other act of introduction.
It will, by the way, run on Energon® Cubes and feature a cooled compartment for spreadable meats.

These are very serious things that we talk about here. However I thought the cooled compartment was optional.

While it may not be too early to wonder about the BeoSound 5 / BeoMaster 5, it is a bit early to start worrying about it. Connectivity will be no more an issue with the BeoSound 5 than with any other previous product. Once there is an official nod from Bang & Olufsen that the product even exists, I'm sure that we'll find it even harder to keep mum.

If it didn't exist, why did B&O give us a clue around last Christmas. You don't want to tease dedicated customers.

Flappo,

If BS5 is compatible with Beomedia 1, it is MS Windows and probably an imbedded version.

In the meantime, my AppleTV works just fine.

So only ML on the BeoMaster 5, and the BeoSound 5 is connected as a display via RS232? This will limit BV9-owners when it comes to placing the BS5 (if they build the BeoMaster 5 into the tv's cabinet). As album art is provided by the BeoMaster 5 to the BeoSound 5, I guess ML alone wouldn't be enough - so RS232/VGA/or something similar makes sense.

Neither. It's essentially wired like a BeoVision 4.

Ethernet?

Wireless?
