It's so sad to see "what could have been" with the new mbox when you look at a great product like the Saffire. the saffire is basically a "wish list" that many of us on the digiforum were asking for in the next mbox, almost every feature, even the ones that we didn't ever expect to see like on-board DSP! at least someone listened!
it seems that the marketing folks at digi are more worried about cannibalizing market share of the 002 than making a great entry level product that would attract even more users into the pro-tools world. it's really short sighted though as a lot of folks just getting into recording are going to buy hardware based on specs and recommendations since they don't have experience with any particular software yet.
bad things happen to big companies don't listen to their customers and act purely on marketing projections and the quarterly profit mentality. i wouldn't be surprised to hear how digi tells investors that they are "disappointed by slow sales of the new Mbox2" which are well below our projected sales..."
I have the feeling that this "new" product is digi's way of buying time until they can figure out what they are going to do without having focusrite as a development partner... i do like the M-Audio FW interfaces (i've got the FW410 for location recording) but they don't have the cred that focusrite had so it may take a while.
only time will tell!
