It's very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

Easier said than done but like the underlying approach. The hard part is navigating the waters inside an organization and it takes the senior people to help find ways to work together and support it constantly. rgds, Dan Good reading and see a few central themes in this for all UX professionals and that is to a) Be the glue b) Facilitate this through design and c) Let them own the vision as its being delivered.

Easier said than done but like the underlying approach.

The hard part is navigating the waters inside an organization and it takes the senior people to help find ways to work together and support it constantly.

They remind me of design patterns for specific situations - any chance that there's a larger body of culture-specific design patterns? As a student with no experience in consulting and less with big corporations, I find it hard enough to deal with new cultures as I migrate every few years. This makes a great prompt for what behaviors to look at and what part of the design solution to augment.
