In Waterstones today, 350 reduced £39, down to £111.
Spoting an opportunity to do a bit of James Bondery, I enquired as to the reason (thinking of getting one for relative etc...) and was told , after some persuasion, that they only had 2 left, including demo, and staff were told all remaining stock was to be cleared, and that no more would be coming in - at all.
When I subtly (!) asked if that meant Sony were bringing out a new model, said staff member said they wouldn't think so, but that they had recieved a lot of complaints, and reliability problems with the 350, and that was why they were no longer stocking it.
I then said I had bought a 650 from them, really liked it, and that I had no problems with it, so what was the position with the 650, mild confusion reigned, and was told they didn't know about that.
Sadly someone came up to buy a book then, but I don't think I would have lerned much more anyway.
I leapt in the Aston Martin and puttered away, keeping an eye out for pursuers....................
