I almost fell out of my chair when I read this today:
Sony plans to set up a project team as early as July to develop a new product that combines functions of its portable game player and Sony Ericsson’s mobile phones, the Nikkei [Business Daily] said.
“As early as July”! If I have my calculations right, the iPhone has been on the market for two years. Sony & Ericsson should have built a prototype years ago. But now, finally, with tens of millions of iPhones sold, and a million Palm Pre’s, Sony is ready to put that project team together.
Is it any wonder that Sony is in trouble?
