Found this in a drawer the other day, slapped in a AA and jammed to a few Rammstein tracks. Happy to report that both the device and the music have held up. It's a super weird design too, the memory is in the removable battery compartment for some reason. I think the idea was to buy multiple memory/batter modules and switch them out, but they were way too expensive for that to really be feasible.

I remember reading about the plans for it and distinctly remember seeing pictures of those themes this was of course before Copland imploded and apple killed theirselves by not buying beos

i loved sony pre-1996 when their audio components (at least the es series) were still top notch but man some of their ideas were bonkers i had a 555es receiver that had this abomination for a remote  thats a resistive touchscreen that was barely legible (tho it had a backlight) and there was a stylus that tucked into the back. it used like 4 aa batteries (or maybe 6? idk) the step up was the 777es which had this  which had a little joystick to navigate an interface that was just crazy bad family-owned sony was like pre-1992 daimler mercedes where the engineers ran the show and it was glorious and maddening

I still have one of the last really good sony receivers from 2000 [db940], I haven't plugged it in in forever but I can't bring myself to get rid of it; thing weighs 45 pounds and can drive five 4Ω speakers with ease I followed it up with a decent es in 2008 but I just ordered a new integra so  the world's only perfectly working hdmi-cec implementation I guessof course it has a weird stupid remote because sony but I still loved it  I had a friend who had the egg remote, it wasn't great but it did feel pretty futuristic

LastInLine posted:family-owned sony was like pre-1992 daimler mercedes where the engineers ran the show and it was glorious and maddening I always wanted one of their "highlighter" photocopiers from the late 1980s: shaped like a thick highlighter, you drag it over a line of text in a book and a strip of thermal paper comes out with that text in 1989 or 1990, visiting relatives in Minneapolis, I wandered into some spartan Sony showroom next to the furniture store my family was shopping at and had an amazing time gawking and managed to pilfer one of each of their catalogs it's my sincere hope to find those catalogs online someday so I can see some of the insane poo poo Sony was doing then again, since after all virtually all of the actual products will have entirely disintegrated by now

we're straying out of the 90s now but i just remembered seeing sony's librie ereader in a sony store in a mall many years ago. blew my fuckin' mind, pretty sure that was the first device to use eink. I picked up the thing thinking it was a dummy unit but nope, it was fully functional, the image on the screen was real. apparently they've discontinued their ereader but they do have this funky digital paper stuff https://www.sony.com/electronics/digital-paper-systems/t/digital-paper-notepad
