Marshall Acton III in the house!

----------------

Matthew Jones on De-Convergance (Ted mentioned on the last show in relation to FiiO’s PMP) I think you are right on the whole de-convergence thing Ted.
I think the whole convergence experiment was great fun - and we’ve taken it a long way - but it has arguably has culminated in a “Jack of all trades/master of none” peak, where the separate components are prevented from reaching their full potential, or doing things that might improve their individual capabilities, if doing so doesn’t compliment the vision of the converged device.

If you are right, and we start to focus more on standalone products, I think it can only be a good thing - and certainly more fun for the tech community!
