Why does logitech claim in their commercial that their headsets were used on the moon? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.188.41.247 (talk) 05:02, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

Should there be a List of Logitech products? There's a List of Canon products —Preceding unsigned comment added by Steve a (talk • contribs) 30 January 2006 pitt

I don't see any reason why not. I suggest you be bold and create one. Pegasus1138^{Talk | Contribs | Email} ---- 02:28, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

 HI !!!!In the early days, Logitech sold a Modula-2 system for the IBM PC.  That is how I first became aware of them (perhaps around 1985).  How does that fit into their history?  Since it predates the web, Google doesn't reveal all ot the history.  http://workshopstudio.bea.com/mansour.htm seems to be a rememberance of the original author.

I agree, this belongs in == history == Lexein 10:39, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

For some reason I thought logitech first started making mice to go with the Modula-2 so I was surprised to see no mention of Modula-2 on this web page. Is there any truth to that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.69.19.198 (talk) 13:50, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

I cannot provide more information about this right now, but, yes, Logitech made a Modula-2 compiler even before they entered the mouse business. This must have been 1989 or earlier. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 09:57, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

I was teaching classes using Logitech Modula-2 in the mid 1980s, so I know this to be correct. I have long-since lost the excellent manual sets that Logitech produced for this product, but BitSavers has a scan of an early Logitech Modula-2 manual that is dated February 29, 1984: http://bitsavers.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/pdf/logitech/Logitech_Modula-2_86_1.0_Feb84.pdf--Vmanis (talk) 07:03, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

There's a wiki that appears to comprise material from former Logitech staff: logistory.wikispaces.com. A search there turned up a few references to Modula-2 and other software products. --Vmanis (talk) 17:10, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

The following sentence doesnt make sense for two reasons. "Logitech's sales and marketing activities are organized into three geographic regions: Americas (including North America, South America, and Australia); Europe, Middle East, and Africa; and Asia Pacific."

1. there r six regions listed and it says there are three 2. Australia is not in the Americas region

I'm not an expert in this subject but i thought I'd bring to everyone's attention

1: Actually, there are three regions. Pay closer attention to the semicolons:

Region 1 == [Americas, Australia]

Region 2 == [Europe, Middle East, Africa]

Region 3 == [Asia]

2: Just because they are separate geographical regions does not mean that they cannot be considered the same region for marketing purposes. 69.204.219.131 (talk) 20:56, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

I think this article, particularly, and mainly, the first part, reads like an ad/PR job for Logitech. I'm tagging it for cleanup. Cs92 05:08, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Cleaned it and untagged it. OK? Lexein 10:40, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

The list of products states that Logitech manufactures 'iPod's. This claim is obviously false as iPods are Apple's flagship product.

i'm pretty sure whoever wrote it meant 'ipod accessories'. a tad badly worded, but valid —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.183.85.18 (talk) 18:16, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

What are the other brands Logitech owns totally or partially ? I know they own Labtec and outsource to some (mainly in China) manufacturers that can be sometimes found in little shops and supermarkets, lidl, aldi, walmart... (82.243.0.45 (talk) 19:16, 14 February 2008 (UTC))

I was surprised by this article when it said that Logitech has bluetooth mice/trackball peripherals, because in my memory they didn't. I just checked the Logitech corporate site and I couldn't find a single bluetooth mice/trackball peripheral, so I'm going to delete it unless someone has information otherwise.

I'm proposing that Logitech Attack 3 be merged into this article, specifically the Products section. This is following the "No Consensus" AfD for that article. Per WP:PRODUCT, "information on products and services should generally be included in the article on the company itself". The caveats to this (namely, notability of the product and large size of the company article) do not apply here. Discuss away! —/Mendaliv/^2¢/_Δ's/ 15:24, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

4 years late, but I figure I might as well add this anyway...

I searched Logitech Attack 3, and was led to the main article on Logitech. When I scrolled down, I found no information on the joystick I'd been looking for information on.

Please explain how removing a page which possibly had information at one point and replacing it with a redirect is the same as changing a page to a redirect and adding its information to the company's page? 58.7.186.211 (talk) 02:42, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

"In Canada, Logitech International uses its own name without conflict with Logitech Electronics, an InterTAN Canada Ltd. supplier of consumer electronics since 1988."

This is confusing, since I've shopped in InterTAN's Source stores and seen the 'real' Logitech's stuff on display, but never noticed "LE's" stuff. 66.36.133.8 (talk) 06:17, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

In the list of Product Families the IP 65.94.79.179 has added on 24. November 2015 00:56 an item High Security BearBunker Doors. I can't find anything with google about this product, neither the two companies mentioned. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.103.83.210 (talk) 12:33, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

It seems a lot of the lines are taking right from Logitech's marketing department. Here are three examples of speech that are to the brim with vague marketing lingo. Maybe this should be simplified or removed.

"develop integrated solutions that will allow for more optimized, effective, engaging and powerful presentations"

"The mouse will be available in August for $60, can track over 500 inches per second and features Logitech's own Delta Zero sensor technology"

"ConferenceCam Connect, a portable all-in-one solution for video conferencing with a design for small and medium-sized rooms"
