Why redesign the software AND hardware when you can just design the software and let the big tech companies worry about sourcing parts and all the vertical integration problems.
What he said. Eventually Lionel will be in the same boat. Whether they recreate a hardware remote or most likely go the way of the smart phone is yet to be seen. I agree, why deal with ever changing hardware that can take years to redevelop when you can push software updates regularly.
