Well, yes they found a new reason for Sony's situation:

As for Sony, well, they just can't catch a break. The company scored a major coup when Blu-ray officially trounced HD-DVD in the hi-def format war, but few believe the technology will catch on with consumers. Strong sales of big-time exclusive Metal Gear Solid 4 were promising, but the troubled launch of their 'Home' network coupled with relatively weak holiday sales (only Resistance 2 cracked the Top 10 list in November, all the way back at number 9) cramped their style. The once-promising PSP is getting whomped by both the DS and Apple's surging iPhone. Did a witch cast a spell on these guys or what?

I knew it!!!!!

Why bring the iphone and the PSP in the same context? Just wrong.

Well, if you consider the success that Sony used to have with the PS2 and the walk-man that was killed by the IPod, I think you could say that they have been cursed.

How many cups of darkness have I drank over the years? Even I don't know...
