You are right, I did bring it up...
You, and your cohort austonia's shallow attempts to riddicule the 0-1000 by beating the drums for CREATIVE Nomad, via posting their OP-ED Press release on how much money they made last quarter, has no relevance to the issue of whether 0-1000 is a better prodct than anything Creative has to offer in the DAP market...
I know CREATIVE as far back as the 80's when I bought my first sound card from them, while they were operating out of a warehouse in South San Francisco, CA. And, I know what a giant multi tentecle company they are, and how they operate...
As they point out in their own PR:
"Approximately 50% of our revenues in the second quarter came from products outside the PC, including our NOMAD digital audio players, Cambridge SoundWorks and Creative branded speakers, and our family of WebCams. Revenues from our NOMAD family of digital audio players, including the MuVo and NOMAD Zen, were up over 100% year-over-year;...
FIRST:
They say 50% of their quarter's revenue came from a plethora of
products other than PC, and there is nothing there to indicate
that NOMAD family of products were a big chunk of that 50% because people were gobbling them up, as you imply...
SECOND:
They note that their revenues for the NOMAD FAMILY were up 100%
year-over-year, but they fail to mention that they had to take a $60 million writ off last year. I suppose, one could conlclude that they only lost $30 million on their NOMAD this year?...
Ordinarliy, I ignore such obviously illogical comments as yours that seek to compare little EDIG and its 0-1000 with such giants as CREATIVE and APPLE, citing their askwed financial PRS to infer that EDIG somehow failed in executing on its PLAN to deliver its technology to the Market...
On the other hand, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Why don't you buy an 0-1000, and a Creative top of the line NOMAD, and after you have compared them write your critique. Then, there would be some validity in your comments, provided they have merit, which I doubt...
