Sorry Sony issues recall again
Cyber-shot screens are shot

SONY HAS SAID it has a problem with LCDs on its Cybershot digital
cameras.
Screens on eight models sold between 2003 and 2005 can suffer in
humid conditions, the Japanese giant said, offering to replace
affected models. Users will notice problems displaying images or
the camera might not work at all.
If you work for Sony, telling the bosses that you've got another
problematic component after *that* battery recall is a job you
really don't want. The better news for the firm is that the firm
only expects about 4,000 units half a percent of units shipped --
to have been affected so there will be no material effect on
financials.
Still, the damage to the iconic brand caused by dubious QA testing
is surely having an unwanted impact.
