Breaking down the PS Vita TV: Why Sony's $100 set-top box is more than a consolation prize

Of course, it seems a no-brainer that PS Vita TV will launch in North America and Europe (and elsewhere, for that matter). It's exactly the game console concept that's been rumored for years from the likes of Apple, Google, and Amazon: inexpensive, small, media-capable and ready to run media streaming apps. There's also the convenience of it employing DualShock controllers, a standard known to hardcore and mainstream gamers alike. Sure, it's got some Japan-centric quirks at the moment - Remote Play won't likely see wide use outside of Japan, nor will the Nasne connectivity - but it's otherwise ready for international consumption.

Nokia + Android = Newkia - The Goodness of Nokia With The Mightiness of Android!

The move is apparently  seen to fuel intersests of Nokia's fanatics who wished for Android OS on the Finnish company's hardware – a feat that has only been a wishful fantasy for many, especially after Nokia chose Microsoft's Windows Phone OS over Google's open source Android to resurrect its failing market stance. Even as the new name ‘Newkia' represents a new company and is apparently short for ‘New Nokia', it seemingly inherits Nokia's substantial manpower (think of employees who left Nokia) with common temperament for an Android-powered smartphone with Finnish company's genes of quality build and design.
