This reflects the state of Japan really.
The country is going through collective apathy.

I was just thinking about this right before this article. Sony needs to innovate on a more.creative productive level. They tend to innovate on propriatary things to Sony and costly mass production...
Cough cough. PS3 processor 7 SPEs, Mini discs, UMDs, memory chips, etc...

if only they price their products parallel to the competition. Sony has $400 netbook while asus has $250 with exactly the same specs!
