Nevermind counterfeits, What about the same product ? Western company contacts Chinese Factory's to produce X,000 items. Factory produces items to contract. Having gone to all the effort of setting up a production line, and a supply chain, , why not run it a little longer ... Western company now finds itself competing against, effectively, its own product with no obvious recourse .. Helps if the item is a commodity, or can be easily re-branded ( sometimes they don't even go to that effort for other markets ...) Thanks western capitalists!

Depends on the rate of actual improvement. Would make sense if Moore's law or Kaizen applied to audio transducers, rather than marketing or reviews.

Wishing a speedy recovery to all. Medicinal Biscuits? With added Colin?

Happy Birthday Ari!

Looks Good!

^ from the article Connectivity and Apps The iPhone App makes it incredibly easy to cook with Anova. You simply find the food you’re cooking, adjust the settings if you’d like, and hit start. There’s no need to search for time and temperature settings. It will all be programmed into your phone. We’re going to release an SDK, so that people can develop their own apps to work with Anova. We anticipate people will make nutritional apps, apps that make it easy to share what you’re cooking with others, recipe apps, and time and temperature apps. We want you to be able to input what you’ve got in the fridge and simply touch a button to begin cooking the perfect meal.

Long Pig?
