Are you done with the suggestions? I could really use $2k. :) There's one thing you haven't mentioned about reinvention - it may be good for you but it takes w-o-r-k. Something most humans seem to have evolved to avoid in preference of ... well ... spreading genes around. Which is good - because if you're even thinkin' of re-invention, you're ahead of the pack. Dang.

First, we have only so much disposable income, and it goes to wine, iPods, DVDs, or what have you. So Stormhoek is competing for dollars with Apple and others. So many people overlook this. 2. We also only have so much brain space for mindshare, branding, and so on. That's one reason why iPod is in my 78-year-old mom's head and non Sansadisk. Apple, being a cool brand, is competing with Stormhoek for mindshare too. I can definitely see how Stormhoek could see Apple as their competition.
