中午在 www.pda247.com 看到的新聞，可能是謠言，星期四會有公開說明？

Topic: The end of Clie and Sony Ericsson?: more information           Date: 31/5/2004 (17:12)       

Email just received- "Regading Clies i haven't followed the whole thing, but from what i read in my daily surf seem it started with brighthand rumor, then someone noticed that the new investor relations page with a product range pictures doesn't feature any clies but psp and new ipod like products (which by the way are released in june in japan, so seems this is kind of replacing clies, as sony has more interest in that with sony connect and sony music in the same group ; just my opinion no facts on this but quite "obvious". Then some other srotires came out, like this one (german) and finally i found on my favorite french forum a thread in which the site owner confirms the rumor and says it will be announced on Tuesday afternoon...

There is more information on the above email but I can't print the rest of it- safe to say this is looking very definate now as I have just received another email on the subject which I really cannot print but YOU CAN ALMOST CERTAINLY EXPECT AN OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT TOMORROW

To add to the misery it may well also be announced tomorrow that Sony Erricson Mobile Phones will also be at an end... No confirmed details but it looks as though it's the partnership that may be ending.

光是說 Sony Ericsson 要收攤這事就很難令人相信了。

這裡的說法看起來比較不像謠言

This move is a re-grouping, not an exit from the market
Sony will continue to sell through stock of current models which could last for several months
Sony will continue to honor all support agreements and warranties
The Clie line will continue to grow and evolve in Japan
They believe wireless is very important to mobile devices. To this end they will continue to work hard in the SonyEricsson partnership to bring innovative devices to market
Beyond wireless Sony feels mobile devices need to be strong in multimedia and gaming
