Which is a fine and easy way to avoid the bad parts of the Sony store that makes it a pain. You already know what you want, you go in, get it, pay and leave. Kinda like me when I get socks at the store.
The annoyances start when you're just, er, "e-window" shopping, something that all stores would like to encourage. Then the slowness, the odd linkage, the "ah geez, come on already!" factors slide into focus, making you wonder why you're even at that site.
