Sony is known for leading technology, so when they say they are entering the smartphone and tablet market why wouldn't you be excited? During a recent an earning call Sony talked about future products coming from their portable market. Noting that Ericsion did slump, but the PlayStation division will be keeping them afloat with a new approach to the market.

"We will look into those markets in trying to develop strategy for the future. Of course, we can't talk about specific products, but smartphones and tablets... it is difficult to tell you how we can put the games on them, but they are not going to be planned in different parts of our company."

They noted that when the time is right is when they will announce the new product line, perhap E3? While a "confirmation" on the PlayStation Phone is always great, they went on to talk about the tablet market.

"Obviously as a mobile strategy, this occupies a very important position. On one hand there is PC, and on the other hand there is joint venture with Ericsson on smartphone and for the games devices.

Tablets... fall somewhere in between, and it is true Apple has led the market, but when we are to enter the market, we would like to put a Sony character onto ... a new product, and that is the effort we are making right now. Therefore I think you can hope for a very good product to come out."

They want to put a known Sony character on a new line of products, so does this confirm PSP 2 will be like a tablet device? Meanwhile the new Ericson line is a smartphone based PSP style device? The questions are there and the dreams are begining to flow. We are excited!
