Bang & Olafson's pricey Serene, for example, is produced in conjunction with Samsung, which had its own rocky transition from consumer electronics to cellphones. According to my colleague Peter Lewis, the Korean company's chairman gave its first phones to all his friends as gifts, and the feedback was so horrendous he had employees destroy Samsung's entire inventory of phones in a bonfire.
