While Sony Tries To Become Apple,
Samsung Tries To Become Sony

While Sony Tries To Become Apple,
Samsung Tries To Become Sony 05/13/2004 03:41 AM
Has anyone noticed that it's becoming increasingly difficult to tell Samsung from Sony? It appears that almost everything Sony does, Samsung does as well. So, it's really no surprise that a little over a month after Sony announced plans to build out retail stores more for advertising than for sales, Samsung plans to do the same thing. Of course, while Sony says they're more interested in using the stores for advertising, Samsung has gone one step further. They believe so strongly that this "store" is just for advertising that they won't sell you anything at the store. It's for showcasing products only. Also, a random note in the article, but the same week that Sony and Nintendo announced their plans for their next generation handheld gaming devices, this article also mentions that Samsung is planning for its own N-Gage like phone/gaming device. Apparently, the dismal failure of the N-Gage isn't enough to scare them off.

Microsoft may try to strike a deal with Japan's Sony in an effort to compete with Apple in the digital music arena, the Wall Street Journal repors.

Sony Inks Korean Hotspot Deal for PSP

Sony Inks Korean Hotspot Deal for PSP 03/28/2005 07:50 AM

Wireless Watch Japan is reporting that Sony has partnered with Korean internet provider KT Corp. to offer internet service for the PSP via the company's 14,000 hotspots. It's not unexpected, of course, but that pretty much cinches it for any nay-sayers: the PSP is going to get a proper web browser, and soon. So not only will the PSP be a mobile gaming rig, an easy video platform, and an MP3 player, it'll also be a down-and-dirty internet machine. And once the keyboards begin hitting the shelf, we'll have ourselves quite a little unit for $250.
