Most mobile phones have taken a different route. Ideally, phones would integrate games with the standard mobile device we use today. But as far as Sony is concerned, it is the other way around. For their Sony PSP, a gadget that is familiar to us as a gaming device, rumors are flying around that it will be made as a mobile phone as well. Wise decision?
Some may like it while others may not. But it does make you wonder, bulky as the PSP may be, how would it fare compared to the slimmer and portable types such as the iPhone? Are we going to see a new PSP design soon?
If Sony is dead serious on this niche, well, one thing we can look forward to is the design outcome. We may soon see a slimmer and lighter PSP it all pushes through. But now, the next challenge awaits and a big question comes into mind; Is it worth turning a successful gadget into another niche where is may find itself crawling back to the top?

[...] Sony has a brand new netbook ready for you. The Vaio W is coming with a 10.1-inch screen, a 1.6GHz Atom processor, 1GB or RAM, special Vaio Media Plus media streaming software and probably a choice between a HDD and a SSD. This is not Sony’s first netbook. You do remember the overpriced Vaio P, don’t you? Well the W looks like a real netbook as it doesn’t follow the design of the P. And we have more good news for you! The W model is going to sell for around $629 in Japan so it looks like Sony realized why people buy netbooks after all. Apparently it has something to do with those small prices! [...]
