Japanese tech. companies are reeling from the blows by the recent iGadgets that have hit their shores. Apple, among other U.S. (and Asian) technology companies, have begun to dominate the Japanese technology market, something that is indeed shocking for a country that prides itself for being on the cutting edge of tech. Companies like Sony and Konami (the video game company) are having to adapt how and what they develop to this changing market. Sony is already working on a iPad-like device.
I don’t find the iPad to all that remarkable, but I love the reaction it’s generating in other computing companies. It’s getting everyone to jump in and take a crack; we’re going to be seeing some great stuff in the near future. I look forward to seeing what those creative Japanese companies think of.
