In her review of the bizarre twitching, wiggling, flashing PMP speaker - which officially went on sale in the US earlier this month [...]
Sony have given the green light to their Sountina NSA-PF1 non-directional speaker, which will go on sale in Japan on June 20th. The lightsabre-like column is six-foot tall, much of which is a shaft of organic glass that vibrates with a 50 to 20,000Hz range. Actual power output is not mentioned, but the system does have [...]

Sony have announced their latest HDTV range, the BRAVIA V4000-series. Larger than the V4500 launched earlier this month, three sizes of V4000 will be available initially - 40-inch, 46-inch and 52-inch - with more options later on in the year. Each packs 1080p high-def support, integrated DVB-C/DVB-T digital tuner and the BRAVIA ENGINE 2 processor for a 33,000:1 contrast [...]
Sony’s Rolly dancing wireless speaker robot might be a relatively pointless frippery, but now it’s a pointless frippery you can officially buy in the US. The company has announced that the easter-egg-sized “Sound Entertainment Player” is now available in retail stores across the country, having been available exclusively in Japan for some time now.

Sony has pulled the covers off two new Xplod in-car CD receivers, the CDX-GT920U and CDX-GT620U. Support for CD and radio is a given, but they also have USB ports for playing music stored on memory sticks and Sony’s Quick BrowZer technology to speed tracklist navigation. Both have fold-down, removable face-plates, which in the GT920U’s case [...]
