It was Charles Hansen's idea

As I suspect you know, Hansen chose the shape because he couldn't fit his preferred topology into a flat device. In other words, function over form. Which is what I always want in an audio device, but maybe that's just me.

As a happy Pono owner myself, I am baffled by the tone of the comments about the Pono player. What should be obvious to a reasonably intelligent eight year old (it's a desktop player, not a portable; it's for files you already own, not for downloads you buy from Neil) seems to have gone over the heads of many denizens of this board and other audio fora. Considered as what it actually is, it's a nice little device.

Happy listening,

Jim
