Over the past several months, executives at Sony have found themselves in hot water over a series of security breaches in its PlayStation network. While very popular for their flat panel TVs in TV lift cabinets, Sony is also a gaming giant. In April, a severe security breach allowed hackers to obtain personal and credit card information for millions of Sony users. Despite the massive blow to their reputation, Sony CEO Howard Stringer remained positive at the recent shareholders’ meeting.
Boasting that approximately 90% of users have returned to the service, Stringer told the crowd that brand perception is improving. According to Yahoo News, the attack cost Sony nearly $173 million. Sony’s service gradually reconnected in May, offering users a ‘Welcome Back’ package and a $1 million identity theft insurance policy for the next year.
Stringer expressed concern that he felt that the breach was an attack on Sony’s intellectual property. His words suggest that the attack may have been carried

Mitsubishi, a small-scale player in the TV manufacturing world, is ready to unveil their 92-inch TV to consumers. Yes, you read that right – 92 inches. First introduced in January, this gigantic set uses rear-projection technology and is capable of displaying 3D content. Such a huge TV is a deviation from what the leading manufacturers are introducing to the market. Not only that, but rear projection?
Rear projection TVs aren’t exactly commonplace these days. Not only do 92 inches make this TV way too big for a TV lift cabinet, the 15 inch depth is in stark contrast to 1-inch deep flat panels. Large TVs are popular but once the size increases past 65 inches, there is a steep drop off in sales. Although these super-large TVs may not be the most popular with consumers, they are profitable for the manufacturer and cater to consumers with a need for a huge screen - think media rooms and the like.
Another bonus with rear projection TVs is the cost. The television is much larger than its LCD
