Uh, no. I think the only sony product I would consider buy in the foreseeable future is a Playstation 3, and thats not for its quality or last ability or anything else under the heading of "product integrity". Its for Gran Turismo 5 (if it ever get released!). I'm not a gamer, I just like driving really fast without having to pay the consequences. :D

You forgot marketing. They are very good at that. Not as good as Canon or Microsoft, but still better than some.

Hello mister Nikon.

My little Coolpix 7900 is also suffering from the same problem. The "chrome" lens surround is coming adrift and the sharp pieces also can cut or scrape my fingers. Can I have a new one?
