Devialet's newest technology...?

[Jwg1749]

Considering all the (past and current) issues with AIR it's, in a way, a smart move from Devialet to take out the customer's computer from the equation. Of course they should make AIR as fool proof as possible but streaming audio still is a semi real-time application in which it is important that everything in the chain performs well. It's very difficult to support a solution that works on such a wide array of devices/configurations. Remember there are many people that don't have any issues with AIR but Devialet can't control the customers computer but they do have full control over the Dialog (it's internal workings) that replaces that computer.

Great post. I couldn't agree with you more Antoine.

Likewise.

I thought I'd end up with a dedicated home-brew PC supplying my Dev via ethernet, but the Dialog looks like it'll save me the bother and be cheaper too.
