For decades, the Sony brand has stood for entertainment. Now that Sony to release its own tablet to compete with the iPad, which he calls the S1 and S2 for the moment, naturally assumes you two things: that there is a reason to buy one instead of an iPad, and that this reason is entertainmentbe it music, movies or video games.
As it turns out, the Sony "PlayStation tablets" will have all three, but they'll likely are poor.
Qriocity killed the cat
Instead of Apple's iTunes for music and video, Sony S1 and S2 tablets will ship with Qriocity, streaming music and video service that Sony launched last year. His "Music Unlimited" service lets you stream "of" millions of pieces on your compatible device, which, at the present time, includes Sony Bravia televisions and consoles games PlayStation 3, as well as Windows PC (not Macs). Its "video On demand" service works the same way and has many big studios names titles.
The problem is that 9.99 Qriocity $ a month service has to compete with iTunes, which may not offer an option of streaming, but allows you to actually keep your music. And there are a lot of music available free streaming, Pandora, Spotify and Last.fm services. Worse still, Qriocity suffers from network extended as of this writing, with Sony PlayStation Network failure. Users personal data were disclosed, and there is no word yet on when the service will be provided online.
Much of his time
Speaking part of the PlayStation Network, "playstation" informal moniker of the "compressed PlayStation" is the other half of its points of sale. If you have the habit of the NHP on a PlayStation Portable or PlayStation 3, you'll probably be disappointed.
First of all, the Android app that you use to connect to the PlayStation Network lets you chat, or buy films or games, or anything. You will use a separate store to buy PlayStation games, and none of the current titles are available. just classic PS such as Crash Bandicoot, and Wild Arms. A handful of exclusive games are available for the PlayStation as the S1 and S2 certified devices, but it comes to games publishers such as Gameloft Android, and unless you have followed the market of the Android games you've probably never heard of them.
Say what you want on the Apple products, but the iPad is great for the games.
Show us the equipment
I did not say anything either S1 or S2 material yet, because nothing excites me. They are two Tegra 2 tablets; They both have wi - fi and 3 G capability; S1 will double cameras, and the S2 will have two screens. That and the S1 being "form of a magazine" where it tapers to a fine, is the most interesting thing, I can say to their topic. And I have no idea the S2 dual screen thing how will play in real life, but it reminds me of the echo of Kyocera.
It is clear
If you are heavily invested in equipment from Sony (PlayStation consoles games, Bravia televisions), it might be good idea a shot to pick up a tablet that will play nicely with them. You can even use its DLNA feature to stream music and video to TVs and loudspeakers compatible.
No one should not expect, however and should just seek an iPad 2 instead - even if they have not invested in other Apple products.
