User Interface: Just so you know I think I mean it was my understanding that before we were going to stay in the midmarket range It seems we are kind of approaching a higherend range I want to make sure everybodys with that
Marketing: Well you had acknowledged that we have more money for this
Project Manager: well we do not have it is not that we have more money
Marketing: Did not you say so ?
Project Manager: we can push up the the price
Marketing: That is what I mean We can increase the cost So I do not know I do not know whether having
User Interface: I just want to make sure everybodys on board with it So
Project Manager: So we really need to be sure as to what we can push the cost up to though we have not got to a stage where we are ready to pin down the price of components But I would say what sorta price are we looking to be able to sell something like that and what sorta price can we make it for ?
Marketing: Well I think th I think the design and technology has to come back and say to create this product we see it is going to cost us this much for this volume because we do have a volume target of of fifty million profit
Project Manager: no I I think that is where we really should be more flexible than anything else because as we said in the last meeting our management is really looking for us to push our brand We are entering a new market here so I think the the profit expectation for this one product is maybe not as important as being able to
Marketing: I am I am with that I guess what I just want to me the next step is for these guys to come come in with the design proposal w with the cost estimate attached and then we have to take this to the next level
Project Manager: But th what is our ballpark as to what we would be able to sell something like this for ?
User Interface: Well y Let us let us try and think now how much would you pay for
Marketing: We have to find cost
User Interface: with all these features how much would you pay if you went to the store and you were in the market f to replace your TV remote how much would you pay for that ?
Project Manager: But you have got to think who our target market is because I I am not our target market
User Interface: I am just asking you
Project Manager: I am a student but on the other hand I would think mm with my Project Manager salary I would think I could probably afford this
User Interface: Then you could probably afford this
Project Manager: would I buy it ? Maybe If I had a cool new TV and this was r looking really slick and it had the dock and it had the scroll wheel which I thinks a really cool idea that would sell me on it a little Then maybe you know I do I do not think I would go over a hundred Euro certainly that would be way too much but the I would be happy paying over forty for it I guess but not much
User Interface: I would say thirty five to forty
Marketing: I was going to say thirty five to fifty
Project Manager: Kay Thirty five to fifty Euros is our sales bracket So the question is what we ca we make it for
Marketing: Because one of th one of the things we are marketing about this product is that this is the last one you will ever need to buy for your television It is one of the marketing features in this
Project Manager: That is why the scroll needs to be really robust | After discussing the functions, the group thought they were approaching the high-end market, so they could push up the price. In spite of that, the project manager supposed the profit expectation might not be so important as opening up a new market and promoting their brand. In the end, they agreed to price the product at thirty-five to fifty Euros. |

#Person1#: Can you suggest a few exercise to help me get fit and stretch my muscles a littlt?
#Person2#: Sure. If you want to stretch your legs, a good exercise is to lift your knee in front of your body, like this. It's a very simple exercise, but very effective.
#Person1#: I need to excise my arms too. How can I do that?
#Person2#: One good way is to do push-ups. Another way is to use weights. Make sure you grip the weights firmly. You don't want to drop them on your feet!
#Person1#: When I do push-ups, should I bend my elbows so that my nose touches the ground?
#Person2#: You don't need to bend your elbows that much. Bend them so that your arms are at a 90 degree angle. The most important think is to remember to keep your body straight. Many people bend their bodies at the waist, which reduces the effectiveness of the exercise.
#Person1#: What's a good exercise for my chest muscles?
#Person2#: One that I recommend is that you lie on your back. You should have a weight in each hand and stretch your arms out either side of your body.

#Person2#: Yes, you do. Lift the weight up, keeping your arms straight all the time.

#Person1#: Now I know why I split up with Mike. We found we were simply not good for each other.
#Person2#: In what ways?
#Person1#: Well, he is a typical Sagittarius guy, while I am a Cancer. We aren't really compatible
#Person2#: Ha-ha, so you believe in astrology?
#Person1#: What's strange about that! As a person born under the sign of Cancer, I am home-loving and wish for a peaceful family life. But according to astrology, Sagittarius guys are too adventurous and risk-taking. They seldom think of leading a settled and peaceful life.
#Person2#: Is that so? I'm afraid it is too narrow-minded to judge people using astrology. It's all stereotypes!
#Person1#: But in my case, the fact matches the theory. Mike is humorous, energetic, always as fresh as a daisy, but probably too ambitious. It frightens me!
#Person2#: But as far as I remember, you two caught on like a house on fire when you first met.
#Person1#: Exactly. But later on, he cares more about his career than love. Work seems to be the better all, and all for him-so much that he doesn't even grudge sparing a day out with me. | #Person1# thinks she broke up with Mike because they aren't compatible in astrology. #Person2# thinks judging people by astrology is wrong while #Person1# thinks her case matches the theory. |

monster: I see that. What brings you here?
traveller: I'm just exploring this area. Do you live here?
monster: I did, but the loggers chopped down the trees that were my home. So I had to move further into the jungle.
traveller: That's a shame. Are there more monsters like you in this jungle?
monster: There are many of what you might call a monster, yes. I havent even explored it all myself yet. Look at this plant, for example, it is the first time I have seen one like this!
traveller: That's fascinating. I'm starving, is there anything to eat around here?
monster: Try this?
traveller: You sure it's not poisonous?

Project Manager: I think we can discard the help and the mute button by pressing down volume long or pressing down a a number long That saves us one Euro already Because then we have got fifteen I think ?
Marketing: No That would not be an option d I assume you would count the volume and channel thingies for two buttons each right ?
Project Manager: No those are one I think
Marketing: Well think actually there are two buttons
User Interface: it is just one button But There were two for one big button But they are more expensive than the small ones So
Project Manager: but th it is not stated in this files So maybe we can we can even make one button with the volume and the channel in one by pressing
Marketing: Well I was thinking maybe you could just integrate three of those numbers to one button
Project Manager: That is possibility as well
Marketing: That would cut the cost
Project Manager: So And it is good for the design as well So you can make let us see If you make this Looks a bit like a cross Plus Min
User Interface: But I do not do not know if if it is cheaper we have still got four buttons but just So
Project Manager: th I think they count the materials
User Interface: You got not not a butt button itself but on the On the chip you have got still four four buttons
Project Manager: That is right That is right But I think because we have the advanced chip we can just count this as one button
Marketing: But I think this really is four buttons anyhow
Project Manager: But No but I think Maybe it is but then it seems to me that it is impossible to get the twelve and a half Euros Also the LC display I think it is I think it is too expensive for the display we use
Industrial Designer: that is that is a big cost
Project Manager: I think they try t
Industrial Designer: If we leave out the display we can also save money on the chip
Project Manager: That is right but what is the big advantage of our remote then ?
Marketing: Only the docking station I guess
Industrial Designer: Which is not the the docking station is not even in this c s schematic So it is not even taken into the price
Project Manager: That is extra That is extra That is right
Marketing: Maybe we should to a different supplier
Project Manager: Poland Something Polish supplier Do not you think we can if we can count this as v as one button and integrate th these buttons in three then we save a lot of money as well
Industrial Designer: We we could save money on it But would it make the remote more usable for elderly people ?
Marketing: that is what I am wondering
Industrial Designer: My mother can not even send send an SMS message
User Interface: Are we going to buy a a remote control when you can use it ? So We m we must stay below the below twelve fifty or Can not go
Marketing: Well since the market research indicated that older people spend their money easier more easy maybe it is feasible to just put the price of the remote up a little Especially since we have those nice features
Project Manager: but we have to stick to the twelve and a half Euros We do not have any more budget to develop it
Industrial Designer: The margin will get too small
User Interface: But it is possible to make one for twelve fifty
Project Manager: It is If you leave out the LC display And if you use less buttons Say Or you can take the single chip
User Interface: I do not think so
Marketing: It would be a be a pretty rigid one
User Interface: But you can not use
Project Manager: But then w Good looking
User Interface: wi with n Oh with attractive o options So you can stay below twelve fifty So
Project Manager: I think it is difficult as well
Marketing: Basically becoming a choice between like either a good remote and a higher production cost or just any other remote control
Project Manager: Or we can leave out the ten buttons and take one scroll wheel for the programme numbers Then w Because then we save ten buttons Then we have five and one And and see If we have this one and we have got the advanced W we are getting close
Marketing: But how does scrollwheel work here ?
Project Manager: Then you will Or maybe you can scroll If you scroll you will see the numbers on the LCD display Until you have got the right number then you push it
Marketing: That would bring up the price of the scrollwheel also Integrated scrollwheel pushbutton
Project Manager: Alright It is got to scroll and push but then you you can push some other button as well
Industrial Designer: You could just not scroll for a half a second
Project Manager: That is right So if you scroll to a number and then you wait a half second then it g turns to that channel
Industrial Designer: So you will not need a button
Marketing: I think that would be like the end of our usability
Project Manager: But it would definitely crop cost a lot And we need the battery And the regular chip is not possible ? It has to be advanced ?
Industrial Designer: If you want to use an LCD screen you you need an advanced chip yes
Project Manager: It has to be advanced And we can save a Euro by a flat design That is an option we can Then we are almost there
Industrial Designer: if you v could just leave out one more button
User Interface: or we have to skip the subtitle button
Project Manager: but I think that is That is a big advantage
User Interface: it is a big advantage
Project Manager: Can we use can not we integrate the teletext and the subtitles in one button ? If you push it three times ?
Marketing: Well think it is pretty much the teletext subtitles are right now you just push the teletext button go to page eight eight eight and teletext disappears But the subtitles stay there
User Interface: But if you push the teletext button twice
Industrial Designer: What if you have to scroll to page eighty eight ? Eight hundred eighty eight
Marketing: I think that is the case on most
User Interface: It is One m one b a few buttons
Project Manager: Ah that is not really that
Marketing: Well that could be just like the scroll to eight click scroll to eight click scroll to eight click But then again that would be d j just pretty much not an option for older people who do not even know what a scrollwheel is Holding a remote with which they expect to have like ten buttons for the numbers one to zero With only five buttons on it And a scrollwheel
Project Manager: I think if you make a good advertisement on television and in the in the guide you can explain to the people how to use the scroll wheel If you just make it real simple Because it saves it saves a lot of money And we can keep our LCD screen which can provide extra information How to use the scroll wheel How to use the other bu buttons as subtitles And it is good for the innovative design as well If you would erase these Mm eraser ? And we put Looks a bit odd maybe
Marketing: That is a pretty big scroll wheel
Project Manager: That is Something like that Then We have got the scrollwheel One two three four five buttons if we erase this one And these are two buttons then
Industrial Designer: We could make two buttons out of that And just If you press the volume button you can control the volume with the scrollwheel So that would save two buttons If you do the same for the channel
Project Manager: That is really a good good idea I think And it will make the use of the scroll wheel more obvious indeed So we make one for the volume one for the channel Plus scroll That is right So we have got one two three we can leave the teletext in if we want That is m that is better
Marketing: So this is five buttons | Firstly, when the group realized that cost was chiefly incurred by excessive buttons, they quickly decided to discard the help and the mute button. But then they found out that the primary cost drivers were 10 buttons for program numbers. To get rid of them, Project Manager boldly proposed replacing them with a scroll-wheel, which was finally accepted despite disputes over its unfriendly nature for elderly users. Also, the group agreed to remove a volume and a channel button by shifting the up-and-down function onto scroll-wheel and having radio buttons. |
