Well I guess it all depends on buyer's expectation. I bought the OdA for their good looks and great reviews I read in this chat and other forums, not knowing there's an ongoing AIR issue and Devialet's non-chalant attitudes towards its user base. I never have the intention to use AIR as I firmly believe a dedicated server will outperform a computer. Until now I'm still still using a CD transport to deliver digital into the OdA. AIR3b and the discovery of ROON changed all this, I will jump to AIR bandwagon only if I'm certain it will work well, but I won't get pissed if it doesn't, simply because I do not have any expectation on AIR at all. However, if the DAC or the ADH suck I would be greatly disappointed.
By the way, on the upgrade time line, what I have heard is new firmware in July, hardware upgrade from Sept, UPnP feature in January.
