Hi,
Can anyone tell me if the Fuze Media System is available for purchase in the UK?
Thanks

I phone Fuze on Friday (July 11 2008) and no complete system is available in the UK, but Fuze said if anyone buys the Fuze OEM software it should work in the UK.

So what does that mean? Can you buy the Fuze Media Center software without purchasing an OEM PC box ?

Cool, I realy liked the look of the Fuze software at CES in Jan. The whole home audio in Media Center is what I have been wanting to try and do but never really known what direction to go in. And then there was the Velocity Micro / Fuze OEM partnership which was announced resently which sparked my interest again, I had know idea you could buy there software. Any ideas on pricing? Probably best for me to get in touch with Fuze, I wonder if they have some trial software?
Cheers
I just phoned Fuze again and they are now saying its OEM only, which means no software sold separately you need to buy an OEM PC.
I will see if I can find the correct answer.
Richard, I got this reply from them, maybe I should become a dealer!
Stuart,
That is actually not completely correct. We currently do not sell low volume copies of our software; software copies are limited to biz dev OEM relationships and are not sold directly to consumers. We have announced an entry level product with a price point of $2k which will be available in November. My recommendation would be to purchase one of these systems later in the year.
Cheers.
