Project Better Place… hmmm….

» by mtc June 13th, 2008 at 6:14 pm » Comments (0)

Project Better Place is tackling small markets (Denmark, Israel) with eyes on a larger prize (the World).
With significant private backing, and a very high level audience. I’ll be honest though, the website is a bit short on meaty details… I can do with a bit less of Mr. Agassi’s speeches and statements of how […]



Apple’s Trojan Horse… it may be only a sandbox

» by mtc May 22nd, 2008 at 11:31 pm » Comments (0)

Over on Micro Everything, Mats picked up on an recent WSJ article about Apple’s wireless audio potentialities. I too have given this plenty of thought… no big surprise… but I just can’t keep quiet about my random toughts anymore… there are many things I find pretty intriguing about Apple’s approach to this wireless audio distribution, but […]



Gizmodo offers a small stage for the Audioengine W1

» by mtc March 12th, 2008 at 4:29 pm » Comments (0)

While I know that everyone’s blog is just as accessible as another, these blog/media machines — like Gizmodo’s Gawker Media and Engadget’s Weblogs Inc. — just know how to attract the eyeballs. They’re undeniably centers of gravity when it comes to attracting the gadget lusty peanut gallery. I just wish they spelled “AvneraAudio” […]

In a follow up to his article published last month, Michael Kanellos on CNET News.com posted a video that shows you both the AWD210 from Acoustic Research and the Rocketfish RF-WHTIB. Not a bad endoresement (and demonstration) of our technology.

Avnera: stealth no more…

One would hope they help raise the bar of what consumers should expect in terms of features, sound quality, and reliability. […]
