OK, first of all, your title "Is There Still Hope for Sony?", then you go on to talk only about the Playstation 3, which is a small part of Sony's business, less than 15% of it in fact.

Second, your title is misleading, you point out Sony are failing to reach their potential, this doesn't translate into a company failing. Having great potential is a plus in my books. Their balance sheet shows Sony has had a turnaround, back on track and looking better than it has done in years.

You take Sony's strength's and potential strength's and turn them into negative's. Some how you make out that its a bad thing for a company to have the ability to leverage media to boost sales, have a monopoly over the increasing popular high definition disk, etc.

BTW, if you want to talk about the PS3.. Its looking better than ever, so why the negativeness? Production costs have come right down, slim version already in works, 'Home' on its way, Movies on demand just arrived, monthly sales overtaken Xbox and quality of games ever increasing.

PS3 should be dominating by now, but its not due to the mistakes you point out. I think everyone knows this by now, most of the weakness you point out are either solved or Sony have stumbled through and survived. Yes, they need to keep the ball rolling in this game of catchup and E3 was a worrying sign they are underestimating the continuous effort needed. That's what this article is mainly about, a little worry and living in the past. But don't worry, tense competition makes everyone, even the winners worry and feel a little nervous for the future. Its all good, PS3 is playing catchup and doing excellent, sales improving, everything improving, its turned into a wonder box, something we always doubted it could be. Its fantastic, but try not to get too emotionally involved, this will only lead you to sell at the slightest dip in the progression chart on its pathway to glory.]]> Thu, 24 Jul 2008 15:41:33 -0400

I'm surprised it has been losing so little the past few days when compared to the market. The news coming out is the worst E*Trade could have hoped for. Could hit below $1 before ETFC even get to its results day.]]> Sat, 12 Jul 2008 22:15:09 -0400

Great strides taken in past year, but their superb iphone is merely replacing their ipod sales, 90% of products are overpriced and the rest of their products have at least one major flaw.. laptop(no enet port), AppleTV(read any review), desktops(lacking software support).]]> Thu, 12 Jun 2008 17:47:38 -0400

I'd say, buy on a dip, like today, the stock is unchanged while market is up +1%, won't get a much better deal than that.

The website went down for a few hours, it happens to the everyone, no website, even google is up for 100% of the time. If a website goes down, it usually means they are overloaded, obviously Amazon try to estimate the load on their infrastructure. So I'm guessing there was a sheer "positive" surprise of incoming customers. I doubt it was anything else, since Amazon can throw pocket change at hardware and tech guys to provide raw horsepower and stability.

Beware, so many shorts out there, but the past month has shown the stock has good support, so now they are resorting to "sell the news" comments. In other words, they were late to the game and now won't a small dip to buy. Don't give them a free ride, keep your aapl stock, because the future looks rosy :)]]> Mon, 09 Jun 2008 12:20:46 -0400
