Dare I say it, but with all of this uncertainty, there has to be an opportunity for a high-end manufacturer to support whatever comes about, even if it is transient.

Meridian, with its (I hope not fading) history of hardware and software upgrades could really re-charge its brand equity here by supporting (for a charge, of course) what ever comes around, even if it's not around for long. Though my heart tells me that M is struggling a bit at the moment...
