Logitech G600 Mouse Brings 20 Buttons to the MMO LAN Party

Logitech G600 Mouse Brings 20 Buttons to the MMO LAN Party

Posted on Jun 19, 2012 by MG1

Logitech is rolling out a new addition to its G-Series gaming lineup, the G600 MMO Gaming Mouse, which features a whopping 20 buttons, including 12 thumb buttons plopped into groups of six "on a meticulously designed thumb panel." There are three default profiles to choose from, two of which are best suited for MMO games and and the other for general gaming, in case you want take a break from World of Warcraft and change things up with Battlefield 3 or the like.
The thumb panel is supposed to be easy to reach so you never have to look away from where the action is, but if you do, it should be easy to spot the button you're looking for courtesy of customizable LED backlighting.

Logitech president celebrates end-of-year earnings with management cull

Logitech president celebrates end-of-year earnings with management cull

Posted on May 03, 2012 by MG1

Filed in: Logitech

Logitech's Q4 and full-year report makes for uncomfortable reading. Despite profits increasing by a factor of nine in the last quarter of the year, overall annual profit fell 44 percent from $143 million to $71 million. The company has already parachuted in former Whirlpool exec. Bracken P. Darrel to turn things around and recover the losses made when the company went big on Google TV. His first action has been to kick-start a restructuring operation that will save $80 million in costs, starting by cutting a whole management layer -- demoting current product VP Junien Labrousse and firing sales VP Werner Heid. Mr. Darrell is now working directly with his team on a new lineup of "stronger" pr...

Logitech's Q3 2012 report confirms Revue is sold out, Harmony remote refresh 'in the coming months'

Logitech's Q3 2012 report confirms Revue is sold out, Harmony remote refresh 'in the coming months'

Posted on Jan 30, 2012 by MG3

Logitech's Q3 earnings for the 2012 fiscal year don't have many surprises since the company already revealed it was dropping out of the Google TV team. In prepared remarks, company management confirmed it is completely sold out of new units, closing the door on any users still trying to nab a $99 Revue (who shouldn't be too heartbroken, since Vizio is promising a second gen unit is on the way at the same price). There is promise however, if you're looking for a new Harmony remote model, while interim CEO Guerrino De Luca says the company is late in providing a successor to the best selling Harmony One and other models, resulting in a 30 percent drop in sales, it plans to strengthen the lineu...

Logitech CEO: Google TV was 'a mistake' that 'cost us dearly'

Logitech CEO: Google TV was 'a mistake' that 'cost us dearly'

Posted on Nov 14, 2011 by MG1

Filed in: Logitech

Speaking during the company’s Analyst and Investor Day recently, Logitech CEO Guerrino De Luca admitted the failure of the Logitech Revue Google TV set top box. De Luca said that Logitech has “no plans to introduce another box to replace Revue” after realizing that the launch of a “beta product” was “a mistake of implementation of a gigantic nature.” Like Apple and Sony, Logitech had dreams of breathing fresh life into the television market, but combined with “miscues in EMEA” the launch ended up costing the company more than $100 million in operating profits and, despite advertising efforts with Kevin Bacon, did little to attract consumer interest. Read on for more.

Logitech Revue gets a second Honeycomb leak

Logitech Revue gets a second Honeycomb leak

Posted on Sep 15, 2011 by MG1

In Google TV news another Honeycomb build for the Logitech Revue Google TV has been leaked. We saw Honeycomb for the Revue first leaked in August but that brought many bugs as well as the loss of Netflix. I’m happy to report this newest leaked build not only runs better but Netflix is back and ready to go. We have a full 8 minute video teaser for you after the break.
While it’s not perfect and still very much a work in progress. This does show that the project is moving along nicely because the video looks pretty impressive. Honeycomb on the Revue runs smooth, fluid, and stable other than a few minor hiccups and the fact we have Netflix back is a major plus too. Lets get right to it, here is...

Logitech announces Wireless Touchpad for Windows 7 PCs

Logitech announces Wireless Touchpad for Windows 7 PCs

Posted on Sep 15, 2011 by MG1

Taking a page from Apple, which last year released the Magic Trackpad, Logitech today announced its own version of the mouse companion (or replacement) designed to add multi-touch capabilities to Windows 7-based PCs. Dubbed Wireless Touchpad, the device offers 5 inches of real estate and supports up to four-finger gestures and swipes.
The Logitech Wireless Touchpad takes advantage of Windows 7's gesture-based controls and multi-touch so you can use two fingers to page scroll, three fingers for photo browsing, and four fingers for application switching. These uses will only expand in the future with Windows 8 expected to embrace touch in a big way and as more developers bake in native support...

Logitech Tablet Speaker for iPad breaks cover

Logitech Tablet Speaker for iPad breaks cover

Posted on Aug 18, 2011 by MG3

My daughter loves to watch Netflix on the iPad. This is the reason you can’t find any recommendations on my account other than horse movies. She is still very small, there isn’t a set of headphone in the house that fit her little head, and the internal speaker “sucks” according to her. What I and anyone else that thinks that the internal speaker leaves a lot to be desired needs is the new Logitech Tablet Speaker for iPad.

Logitech Revue gets unofficial Honeycomb Android update

Logitech Revue gets unofficial Honeycomb Android update

Posted on Aug 02, 2011 by MG1

I’ve never been the sort that was willing to risk running one of my gadgets applying unofficial software and updates. I tend to make do with what OS my gear is running until the official update finally comes out. If you are the sort that likes to apply beta software and unofficial updates to your gadgets and use a Logitech Revue set-top box you may like the unofficial update.
The geeks at GTVHackers have built an unofficial Honeycomb Android OS upgrade specifically for the Revue. The upgrade can be downloaded right now. There is a catch though, the update could ruin your device and you might not be able to revert to the official OS. The update is a beta offering and is not ready for the gene...

Logitech slashes its Revue price to $99 «

Logitech slashes its Revue price to $99 «

Posted on Jul 29, 2011 by MG1

After a net loss of $29.6 million for the first quarter, it seems like Logitech wants its Revue, which was the first Google TV device, to be able to take a bigger share of the market from its competitor, the Apple TV, during the second quarter.
Today Logitech announced that its device that launched at a steep $300 will now be competitively priced at just $99.
With the first generation, unproven platform, not enough for the consumers to justify a purchase, hopefully this price drop and the update coming sometime this summer with Android Honeycomb 3.1 and Android Market support, can save it from the ashes.
Although Logitech, Best Buy and Amazon are still showing the device at $250, look for th...
