Say you buy the new Sony portable gaming device, the Vita. Can you read e-books on it from the Sony e-book store? Nope. Play games from the Sony Android store from their Tablets? Nope. Or vice-versa, can you play PS1 games you bought for your PS3 on your Sony phone or tablet? Nope (though I think you can buy them again from a different store)
Uhm, I know with the PSP, PS1 games and "PS Minis" (games designed for both PSP and PS3) would work on it as well. I was under the impression they played under the Vita as well. As a PSP and PS3 owner, that is one of the features I liked the most. Both devices, and the Vita, use the same "Playstation Store" (I already have a Vita game, that I bought and is sitting on my living room PS3, waiting for when I decide to get a Vita, because it was free for a limited time). Also, I know that was a key point on the Vita, was that you could start a game on the PS3 and continue it on the Vita, with some of the big titles like MLB The Show.

But yeah, for too long, Sony has been disjointed. But I think that they're trying to change that. They've changed a few things here and there, like the Playstation Network has a new name, to get non playstation devices included (my guess, tablets and their PC games).
