Sony and Comcast Team Up

Sony PlaystationThis week, Comcast and Sony opened up a joint retail presence in Philly: Sony Style Comcast Labs. Quite a mouthful, but the name reflects its intention, as both retail store and technology lab, to serve as a place for consumers learn about emerging technologies and check out the latest digital devices.

Much of it is the kind of thing we write about on this blog all the time, such as wideband Internet access based on the DOCSIS 3.0 standard and tru2way sets that don’t require a set-top box. Plus, the media release mentions an “enhanced cordless telephone… with email, IM, text and Yellow Pages.”

You can read coverage of the launch here, here and here. Also, I thought I’d throw a couple photos down below. And Sony Electronics has some more shots on Flickr.

    This is what cablecos need to do (among other things) to promote their products and services. Good to know that Comcast teamed up with a strong technology leader like Sony.

    Thumbs up.
