Sony update their outdated OS?!?!
I think Sony has quite a lot of catching up if it wants to be on the fruit cart(apple bandwagon). They are terrible at patching their products and they seem to leave the current models crippled so as to sell you a new model. They've only recently decided that they focus too much on the hardware side, and not enough on the software. The president fired a few lead people recently due to their reluctance to concentrate more on intergration of software. Now you have a former software company selling more hardware than the former hardware leader(think iPod to Walkman).Time to get with it Sony you no longer have the industry clout to drag your feet and wait this out. If you don't pick things up you will lose the reader market to Apple as well.
How many misteps does Sony have left before it faces irrellavance?
I know this post sounds mean spirited, but I'm rooting for Sony. They have invented some genius products in their time.
