The iPad.
Apple's latest innovation that's making the industry go crazy. I personally don't have any experience with the iPad but it seems interesting...I mean, obviously I've played around with it in the Apple store and a little bit on my friend's, but that's about it.
I don't know about you people out there, but didn't the iPad seem...what's the right word here...hmm..."random" in Apple's innovation collection? The last thing I had imagined Apple to come out with was the tablet. From my own point of view I would say it's random, because I didn't know there was a potential market for tablets and that it would be the 'the next best thing'.
But from Sony's R&D department's view I would say...
"How did we not see this coming?" The steady flow from desktop computers to personalized, individual laptops that can be carried around and used wherever and whenever (of course assuming that its battery has been charged) you want and then moving to tablets...even smaller than laptops and touchscreen and big enough to watch and work on it. Carrying around a much thinner, more delicate virtual book; having all my applications needed for online banking, bill paying, etc. in that one tablet that I can so easily carry around, compared to the laptop that is heavy, with its huge and heavy charger. And to top it all off, the market is buzzing with touchscreen gadgets, from phones to cameras and now the tablet.
Another opportunity missed by Sony...
