Friday, July 23rd, 2010
Make no mistake, we get some weird stuff sent to TCHQ, especially when it’s addressed to our Belgian reporter, Robin Wauters. That is why I always make some extent of opening his mail before it’s sent on. Today, though, was an important day.

a contemporary announcement from Sony researchers revealed the improvement on a new variety of blue-violet ultrafast pulsed laser for optical disks. Feels like it'd be time to modify formats again!

Friday, July 23rd, 2010I believe at one time or another, we’ve all bought a game and been disappointed within the quality.

Walkman Outsold iPod in Japan During August [Apple]It's party time for Sony, as the planets of consumerism aligned to earn it a unprecedented win over Apple's iPod music-playing range. It's the first time Walkman has outsold Apple's music players inside the region since iPod arrived in 2001.
