Intersting reading.
- He wants to buy Palm software
- Sony made the joint venture with Ericsson because we want to be covered by their IP patent umbrella, otherwise we have to pay nearly 15 percent to the GSM license holder. I wouldn't have been able to stand that.
- Nokia is focused on volume—selling as many cell phones as possible at a low price. But in my observation, I am not sure they know very clearly what the real opportunity is in the telephone business. We are talking about secure distribution of music on the phone

i'm trying to be objective:
the interview sounds a bit arogant - it also sounds to me that he doesn't care about their releationship with ericsson
i don't know if i like sony or if i hate them - i think its something in the middle - they make very good products with wounderful designs but the head of the company thinks that they are the best company on earth | |
