Is this a windup? Haven't Sony lost enough money in recent lawsuits?

Anyway, there's a retraction.

You'd think that if the original article was found to be incorrect, they'd remove it completely rather than just adding a retraction statement above it.....wouldn't you?

I would have thought it would be the New Scientist who would be in danger from lawsuits from Sony over this! I wonder if it made it into one of their publications!?

Have just seen the date and it goes back to 2002 so it may be true and they have retracted. Jim.
