Grundig Satellit 900 -=V=- Eton E1 XM Radio
What's in a Name ? ? ? -&- And Will That Name Sell Itself ? ? ?
Grundig Satellit 900 -=V=- Eton E1 XM Radio 1. How many Radio Enthusiasts will 'rush' to "Buy" a ETON E1 XM Radio ? many, Many. MANY! WHY - Because we are into RADIOS and Know What is Inside of the ETON E1 XM Radio ? But the number of Radio Enthusiasts is a 'limited' Market. 2. How many Everyday radio/electronics buyers will "Buy" a ETON E1 XM Radio ? very few, Very Few, VERY FEW ! WHY - Because they are NOT into radios and do NOT Know What is Inside of the ETON E1 XM Radio ? Plus they do NOT 'know' the "ETON" Brand Name [.] Remember the number of Everyday radio/electronics buyers is the the 'whole' Market (unlimited). 3. How many Everyday radio/electronics buyers will "Buy" a Grundig Satellit 900 ? many, Many. MANY ! WHY - Because they are NOT into radios and do NOT Know What is Inside of the Grundig Satellit 900 ? BUT they Do 'Know' the "GRUNDIG" Brand Name [.] Again, remember the number of Everyday radio/electronics buyers is the the 'whole' Market (unlimited). 4. Ten years of waiting on the Grundig Satellit 900 has created a vast 'potential' Market or "Ready" BUYERS ! WHO - Has been waiting 10 Yrs for an Eton E1 XM Radio ? ? ? IMHO: Eton Corp. is making a bad, Bad. BAD! Marketing Decision in Dropping the Grundig Satellit 900 name and using the Eton E1 XM Radio name instead. I Repeat MySelf: Eton Corp. is making a bad, Bad. BAD! Marketing Decision in Dropping the Grundig Satellit 900 name and using the Eton E1 XM Radio name instead. TBL: I might have paid $675 to $750 for the same radio with the Grundig Satellit 900 name; but I will have to think hard before I spend more then $500 on a radio named the Eton E1 XM Radio [.] The MYTH and LEGEND of the "Grundig Satellit 900" would have created a News Story and a BUZZ (Free Advertisement) that Money could not buy for the Eton Corp. Now with the Eton E1 XM Radio name Eton will have to Active Market the radio and Pay to Promote the 'eton e1 xm' radio. For the "Grundig Satellit 900" is indeed a Radio of both MYTH and LEGEND and the 'eton e1 xm' radio is a 'what' ? I just noticed something, when re-reading this, that when I write Grundig Satellit 900; I did not use the word 'Radio' after it like the Eton E1 XM "Radio". * For the very Name GRUNDIG to most American Consumers means "Radio". * For the the very Word SATELLIT (without the 'e') means a "Top-of-the-Line" World Band Receiver. (High Quality) * I did not have to 'qualify' what a Grundig Satellit 900 is for it "IS" a GRUNDIG SATELLIT 900 and that says it All [.] Can the same be said of the 'eton e1 xm' radio ? ? ? Either way until the actual name of this radio is fully decided both the YAHHO! eGroups will continue to exist: "Grundig Satellit 900" eGroup on YAHOO!

Keep in mind that Eton has been 'borrowing' the Grundig name for some years
now. None of the the recent 'Grundigs' sold by Eton in those years were built or designed by the German radio company that made the Grundig name famous throughout the world. Ever owned a real Grundig? -- Brian Denley http://home.comcast.net/~b.denley/index.html "RHF" wrote in message om... What's in a Name ? ? ? -&- And Will That Name Sell Itself ? ? ?

I gave my wife on old model 210 (TR6005), and she still has it. There is
just something cool about those European symbols for the different functions, and that 3-gang turret front end. The newer models are good, but they don't have that same "German" sound. I've also got an old solid state Telefunken unit in the closet. Something about those German radios......... Pete Brian Denley wrote in message news8YNb.72473$nt4.97237@attbi_s51...
