Former Elgato chief to head Apple Germany
Apple Computer has selected former Elgato CEO Freddie Geier to act as the new managing director of its Germany division, according to an online report.
Since July of 2003, Geier was CEO of Munich, Germany-based Elgato, a privately held company that specializes in products that enable Mac users to watch, record, edit and share video and TV within the digital home.
This won't be the first time that Geier has accepted a position with Apple. From April 2000 to June 2003 he was a member of the company's Cupertino, Calif.-based Applications Division where he held the title of Senior Director.
Geier's resume also includes stints at DVD specialist Astarte and distributor ComLine.

I assume he is German so it would make sense to take over some ops in Germany.
When I first saw that he was coming from El Gato, I had images of a Apple media Center going through my mind.
Cool--now buy the rest of El Gato
Its soooooo obvious what happens next..........

If that happened, we would lose Toast Titanium as we know it. It's sold by Sonic, but still developed by Elgato.
