Freefall

Most tech news web sites, apparently relaying an announcement from Sony, although it does not appear on any of their web sites:

Sony will not introduce any new Clie handheld models in the U.S. this fall. Product development and sales continue for the Japanese market only.

Which makes me wonder: is Europe part of the U.S. or of Japan? Geographically speaking, it’s closer to Japan but Sony-doesn’t-give-a-shit-about-it-ally speaking, it looks a lot closer to the U.S.

It’s an important question, though, as I just bought a TH55 when it was released a month ago and I was hoping for some carrying case manufacturers to announce new models for it.

Do not meddle in the affairs of Coding Ninjas, for they are subtle and quick to anger.
