&lt;p&gt;Nothing new here, i guess, but it is from a official B&amp;amp;O &lt;a href="http://www.bang-olufsen.com/Userfiles/File/Investors/9027_BO_samlet_16042009_UK.pdf"&gt;document&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Enjoy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;/MikaelB&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Upcoming product launches&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The products the Group expects to launch going forward&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;are the following:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New TV product family&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Towards the end of the 2009 calendar year, Bang &amp;amp; Olufsen&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;expects to present a new TV product family with a builtin&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;wall mount allowing for a range of placement options&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;because it allows viewers to turn the screen for direct&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;viewing from different angles. The TV family comes with a&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;built-in stereo speaker and digital surround sound module&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and with an option for DVB HD (Full HD).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;55&amp;rdquo; BeoVision 7 model&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bang &amp;amp; Olufsen has also come quite far in the development&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;of a whole new model within the BeoVision 7 concept.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This will be a 55&amp;rdquo; version with Full HD based on, among&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;other things, 100/120 Hz technology. Its functions include&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;built-in LED light, which enhances contrast, superb sound&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;quality with a built-in digital surround sound module and&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;integrated Adaptive Sound Technology. This TV model will&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;also have a built-in DVB HD (Full HD) module as well as an&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;optional Blu-ray player.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New audio product&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also currently under development is a new audio product&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;for playing digitally stored music in a user-friendly plug &amp;lsquo;n&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;play solution. The user can connect an iPod to this product,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;which can also connect to a BeoSound 5 system&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New products for the acoustics portfolio&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A new subwoofer will be added to the speaker portfolio.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;One of its features will be a technology that eliminates&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;vibrations. The subwoofer has a tulip-shaped design and&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;offers multiple placement options because it can be placed&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;on the floor or mounted on the wall.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New telephone&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bang &amp;amp; Olufsen telephones have been a success for many&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;years, but under the Group&amp;rsquo;s Strategy Plan, Management&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;does not expect to initiate development projects in this&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;product category. The Group is currently developing its final&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;concept for fixed-line telephony; a telephone with a speaker&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;for hands-free conversation and conference calls. Among its&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;other functions, this concept also allows the user to select&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;full-graphic display colours.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;BeoTime&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bang &amp;amp; Olufsen is developing a watch that will form part of&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;the Group&amp;rsquo;s series of gift items. Management believes that&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;the design differentiates from everything else on the market&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;in this segment. The watch can also be used to remote&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;control other Bang &amp;amp; Olufsen products and among its&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;features is a built-in movement sensor that allows the builtin&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;display to be reversed for left-handed operation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
