Wow.. I totally "need" this sound card! It's got a separate "daughter card" to handle input and recording. Also has a 600 Ohm headphone amp and the whole nine yards..

Morning Ed. It's a very busy day today at work.

I'll never understand why a company dominating the sensor sales is so horrid in camera software. That's the one thing I like about Samsung: it's leveraging the parts of its conglomerate better than Sony for the mobile division.

Until Sony makes a good camera all around, I'll pass.

You will still run out and buy a smartwatch, some accessories and a tablet though, right?

Well, Sony has been restructuring for the better part of 10(!) years, so I'm not surprised. The truth of the matter is that I like the idea of where they've settled with the X line. This rumored X Premium phone makes no sense to me though. I think they took the best of the compact and OG Z phones and makes something compelling. The S652 chip is as good as the 808.

But the truth is that Samsung now offers water resistance and may do so for a while. HTC has arguably equalled Sony's audio chops, maybe surpassed them in other areas too. So...what do they have to offer to stand out? The UI, while light looking, takes too much work for updates. They may want to take the HTC approach and pare down their skin even more to pump out quicker updates.

Sony doesn't have a strategy, so they'll always overprice their stuff and watch people not buy it.

G4 Approved

They need to do a cool yoga maneuver and pull their head out of their collective posteriors.

Looking at (and drooling over) headphones... these HD600's look pretty good. For a $400 pair of cans, they better be! There's some pretty lengthy, and quite technical reviews.

You mean HAD, not WILL.

Honestly, if you wanted one watch to do it all, the Sony SW3 was the best Gen 1 wear option. Get the metal one and buy 2 straps and you can switch up the look easily based on your flare. The Z3 tablet compact is still one of the best 8" around.

But Sony makes ****, believes you'll buy it just because, and when it doesn't, they act surprised...

Oh, thank heaven! We now know how Trump will make America great again.

They don't even know where their head is or where their *** is...so how can they know to pull their head out of their ***?

Well, half my face hurts and I'm in a grump mood.

If anybody gets any butthurt over my comments (especially those offline), they need to put on some ointment and wear loose clothing before sitting down...

There is an old saying that's the epitome of my afternoon at work so far:

"Too many cooks spoil the broth".

This is also making the side of my face hurt more just watching and seeing it happen...
