Sony exec admits strategic music mistakes

The head of Sony’s video game unit said this week that his company missed out on potential sales from its line of digital audio players because it was overly protective of Sony’s music content. “Ken Kutaragi, president of Sony Computer Entertainment, said he and other Sony employees have been frustrated for years with management’s reluctance to introduce products like Apple’s iPod, mainly because the Tokyo company had music and movie units that were worried about content rights. Now, Sony’s divisions are finally beginning to work together and share a common agenda, Kutaragi said at the Foreign Correspondents Club in Tokyo.”

"My main reason for buying the iPad 2 was its thickness... or lack thereof. It's so much nicer to use; especially over time as the iPad gets heavy. I'm involved in a government rollout of iPads and iPhones. We are trailing the original iPad at the moment. One of the most common questions we have from users is 'can we get the iPad 2 as the iPad 1 is so much heavier/thicker'."
