Go only use mineral glass not Dragontrail like Active or Gorillaglass like Moto Defy.

Is it just me, or do Sony really need to start designing chips in-house to compete in the long run, especially if they introduce Vita OS in tablets and smartphones (eventually, hopefully). It could help them focus on the time-frame of products.
And Vita OS.
How difficult can it be? A strong PS Vita, PS3/4, TV and Tablet integration and also cross-OS (android) compatibility (to some extent), and to push this marketing-wise would be amazing.
They should at least start off with a gaming-tablet with good security and social integration with more GPU power than the next iPad and a Vita OS. Give it the ability to play Vita games. An amazing screen and expandable memory - sorted.
They've already got their video/music services...
If Amazon have got fairly far this way, why can't Sony?
Some of you may say that Sony don't have the cash, but they do., sort-of... And that's why I say at least start with a Tablet, phones can come later when the app ecosystem is there...Maybe.
But just the playstation suite alone won't be enough to build an app ecosystem...who will make instagram just for the playstation suite? An Xperia Play successor + Tablet with Vita OS near the end of next year would also help build an ecosystem.

Seriously drop the whole vita-OS discussion because it is never going to happen. Sony does not have the resources to pull that off no matter what fanboys thinks. Sony does of course know this themselves. Also I don't understand this fascination with vita-OS, tried a vita last week and the OS is freaking terrible. Yes it is pretty fluid but with all the childish colors and big circle icons it looks like a 10year old designed it. It's a real shame Sony seems to have dropped the more mature look of psp in favor of that Nintendo wannabe crap

I think they definately have the resources to pull it off if they determine there's enough demand for it. Mobile and gaming are 2 of the 3 core pillars of Sonys new business strategy so if they wanted to devote the resources to have them work together on a project like a Vita phone or tablet, that could be done.

You're confusing artistic choice with OS limitations. Vita OS is based off the PS3 OS which they've had years to work on and build upon. Vita OS has specifically been mentioned to be built with expandability for phones and tablets as well. If they do decide to go down that route then they would of course modify the OS's interface to be more suitable for phones and tablets. It's really just a matter of whether there's a market demand for such a device and if Sony feels it's worth it to put the resources into such a device. The growth of Playstation Mobile might be a key factor, as that is basically going to be the app store for such a device. PSMs SDK only was recently released, so it might be a bit of time before we see just how many independant people want to develop for it. IMO the good part abou PSM is that it offers Android developers a pirate-free option to get their apps/games on Android. My guess is we'll see ports from iOS over to PSM as time goes on as it seems that many iOS developers are reluctant to port to Android dircetly due to piracy issues.
