As far as Sony are concerned, they still make decent DVD Players, but thats about it- they don't deserve their "premium" reputation any more... | |

| Personally, I don't see any of their current products being able to justify the premium you pay for the Sony brand over similar products from Panasonic, Samsung and Pioneer... |

| Ok, that's taking it a bit far, at least they've apologised for it. As for paying a premium for sony products,the PS3 is expensive due to the fact that you get a Blu-ray DVD player, Harddrive, HDMI output and an 8 core Cell processor, I think I can see why it's expensive right now. And look at the PS2, you can get it for like 1/5 of the price it was when it was released. |

| I read this yesterday. It's funny- if Rockstar pulled something like this off, they wouldn't have gained nearly the same amount of hooplah that Sony had... ah, the double standard of the media... |

| Hmm, I wasn't so much thinking of the PS3 when I said that, more their Vaio and Bravia ranges, as well as the Net Walkman products. It's a fact that the PS3 has been close to a disaster here in the UK so far though- most places are yet to sell through their initial runs of stock, and there are already discounts available on the high-street... |

| Hate to break it to everyone, but Sony's been riding on well-built reputation without very much substance for a while now...this is just another nail in the coffin in which their good name now resides  (this for the most part doesn't include Sony Pictures or SCEA, I mean the Spidey movies and the PS2 have to count for something right?) |
