Sony repents of past folly

Looks like Sony has finally learnt from its mistake with the introduction of the B100 music player. The B100 is tipped to be the first Walkman digital audio player that uses drag-and-drop song transfer, doing away with the convoluted method of using SonicStage whenever you want to synchronize music. Even more shocking is the news of Sony dropping the ATRAC format, relying instead on support for MP3, unprotected WMA, and possibly AAC. The B100 will come with an integrated FM tuner with recording capability, and is touted to be available in 1GB, 2GB, and 4GB capacities at a yet undisclosed price. With this turnabout in mind, will such a lesson see Sony handle the PS3 issue in a more positive manner?
