>Jean that may be so but Philips is more than those products. And the location where something is developed does not define the "nationality" of a company. Companies like Shell and Philips are no longer Dutch. They span too many borders to be considered a national company any more. Don't you wave that finger at me! :)

Jos,

I thought we were talking about innovative design.
Small example:
A few miles from my home there's a Philips "plant".
Most of Philips research concerning HD tv, LCD & plasma screens is done there.
Once finalised they design the production band...and export the whole lot to the Far East. Crazy world we live in

A+
