True - and the mobile market is a very very small % of sales for these manufacturers.

Seems to have everything a mobile needs.. 2 mics.. it's a bit of a beast like the bigger Denons though. Hrm.
Edit: Just seen this!!! The SDJ-4000 is getting a little brother!

No news on pricing or specs of the SDJ-2000 pictured above yet but the SDJ-4000 is expected to retail at $1000
I think the next stage (which I'll wait for) is a mixer that comes with an operating system like android built in, that can run apps.
That gives more flexibility over the software used.
In the meantime, I get way more features out of virtual dj on a laptop.
If the presence of a laptop was the issue, the newest tablets running windows would be more than capable and could be placed more discretely.
However, the laptop had never shown to be an issue. I do feel this current range is trying to fix a problem that doesn't exist.
Denon have now announced (finally) that their Prime hardware has built in wifi and will be able to stream music directly from various providers without involving a computer.

Still no actual release date as yet though.
Supposedly in the country and with distributors now. Believe it when I see it...
I did wonder if they're stalling to capitalise on the attention and prevent it cannibalising sales of the existing prime single deck players (though it's probably done that already).
