Yes, as you've probably heard, Sony has announced that it is exploring the idea of developing an electric vehicle. There is no shortage of companies, both legacy car makers and start-ups, scrambling to build EVs. Sony stands somewhere in the middle. While previously not a car maker, the company is certainly not a newcomer, having built quality products for almost 70 years.
As with other companies, Sony is probably looking at the global success, and valuation, of Tesla and is wondering if the rewards of developing an EV far outweigh the risk. Throw in the global push from governments to incentivize EV sales, and the market potential is clear to see.
So, at CES 2022, Sony's Chairman, President and CEO Kenichiro Yoshida announced the formation of an electric car division, called Sony Mobility Inc. Of course, any EV announcement must be accompanied by some eye candy, so a Vision-S concept car was on display. A Vision-S sedan prototype was displayed previously, but this new prototype is an SUV. So, at least in theory, Sony Mobility already has a 2-car line-up.

The Big Clean
Chances are you probably do not think about the state of your electronic devices too often. Oh, you might think about all the upgrades you would like to make; where you would put those new tower speakers, or how a second or third subwoofer would really tame those bass modes in your room, or how much more cinematic a larger screen would be. Sure, you think about that part of your system. But how often do you think about the well-being of your system?

Bridging the Analog-Digital Gap on a Recliner
When I shopped for a motorized recliner, I rejected models with their own Internet Protocol address and built-in speakers. No need. I had already placed a smart speaker on an étagère beside the space where I had planned to put the chair. I'd have a smartphone in my hand and the room would be bathed in Wi-Fi.
