Sony (NYSE:SNE) has announced a deal to sell its Vaio PC
business to Japan Industrial Partners, a company that specializes in
manufacturing sector investment and turnaround. Revelations that Sony is
closing the kimono on its PC business leaves more than a few bloggers shocked.
Earlier in the week, rumors of a Vaio buyout by Lenovo proved false, driving
down Lenovo shares by 16% before Sony issued a statement denying such gossip.
Saying sayonara to Vaio and desktop PCs, Sony intends to
place more emphasis on mobile and high-end consumer devices, just like everyone
else.
In IT Blogwatch, bloggers say adios, ciao, and goodbye to
Sony Vaio.
Filling in for our humble blogwatcher Richi Jennings, is
a humbler Stephen Glasskeys.
