Honestly, I'm a bit worried about my Sony readers. I've had 2 Sony Notebooks - never again. I've talked to my hardware store. They showed me the guts of a Sony DVD player.
Quote of the hardware clerk: "Goods from their plant in ... all look the same. Disastrous quality."
But this doesn't seem to be the exception. I'm less than happy with my latest Apple products as well.
All going for the lowest price instead of quality.
If I've got the option, quite frankly I try to avoid "Made in ...".
