| Abstract: | The article discusses the economic outlook for Sony as it rolls out the Play Station 3 (PS3). CEO Sir Howard Stringer has been revamping the company by laying off workers and appointing new division heads in the wake of problems with Sony-made lithium-ion batteries, which had an occasional tendency to caiuse some laptop computers to catch fire. Otherwise, the company has had a profitable year. Analysts worry that the PS3s coming to market are too few, too expensive, and potential earnings dampeners. |
