Today we launch the Swisscom Box!

No more "coming soon". It's out! Even if today is my birthday, it's not me getting the presents, it's our customers.

After only months of the most interesting and challenging work we ever did, we are launching our new product. 

This is not your boring IPTV set-top box. This is the Swisscom Box. While it still does everything you would expect it to do, like TV, great new user interface and apps, there's much more. The new Swisscom voice assistant listening to "Hey Swisscom" via the integrated far-field microphones for example. It can even answer if the TV is off, because we integrated a loudspeaker. 

Plus, it's beautiful. Don't you think?

Building this was fun. And blood, sweat and tears. While I will not mention names today, there is an absolutely great team and excellent partners behind this product. It's a pleasure to work with everyone involved.

And: This is just the beginning. Some of the features are mature, some need to - and absolutely will be - growing and improving over the coming months and years. I am really looking forward to this.

It's launch- and birthday, so I'll not spend more time writing today, but there will be more soon.
