Also , is it just me or has this delay not fatally limited the potential success of the recent ' Trade up to Sooloos' campaign ???? Surely a slickly functioning App would help motivate any ' fence-sitters ' to go for it ?? An MC200 and iPad1/2/3 is highly attractive if available .

P.S. Not moaning , but drowning :Oo)

I think the MS600 is a highly underrecognized product that makes this statement incorrect.

Dolf,

I see the MS600 as simply a Meridian quality implementation of the Source:One. Is it better than the previous unit? Absolutely. However, I don't see it as some substantial new offering that wasn't previously present in the Sooloos lineup pre-Meridian. We're free to disagree on this point, of course, but that's my view.

So perhaps Meridian didn't give a date certain and our complaint is that we think they did. How often do you put a lot of trust in the date of a future software release anyway? I'm hoping they get the bugs out before release and guessing that's the holdup now. Their CES development priorites were M6 and 818 before the revised app. Can't take issue with that. JMO.

I think Meridian has had alot on its plate recently; new products, firmware, car stuff etc.

I am thankful/excited that the new app is comming......we should give Meridian time and be thankful for the new firmware and iPad app IMHO.

Just my view,

Tim

We definitely disagree as it is for all intents and purposes an ID40 in it's own box that can be added to any processor. A huge improvement IMHO as it separates the noisy conputer control from the conversion as the Id40 does.

Aloha,

Hi Dolf

Certainly agree with you on the MS600?
