They already have half of the work done with services like PSN. This will be great competition. I personally love Sony hardware design quality, they just need to get their software straight.

Just off the top of my head, I can think of Betamax vcr’s, Mini disc players, memory sticks.

Sony builds good products, but I see no real reason to buy Sony over another brand unless the value exceeds other brands.

This a great idea from Kaz. If they do it fast and right it will help them a lot.

We’ll see if they can push it ahead this time.

I believe Hirai is one of those guys able to find that potential, let’s see how he works.

Good Luck SONY, we all trust you (even those no accepting the reality)
