High-Tech
Finally clapped my eyes on some of that high-tech shit that Japan is famous for. Some western hot shots were getting a guided tour of the Sony megastore, so I tagged along for the ride. 3 big things that they seem to be pushing in their latest tech:
1) Wirelessness
2) Computer integration
3) Hi-Definition
Saw all 3 come together in a 1.5 metre wide Hi-Def plasma screen, with Blu-Ray disc player and data centre. The demo guy downloaded the Quicktime trailer for Spiderman over Broadband internet onto the wireless remote, which has its own 7 inch touch screen monitor. He then beamed it over to full size on the plasma screen. Amazing. They also had stand alone touch screen TV's which you can send music/DVD etc too, while you stroll around your house. The future has arrived.
