By the close of trading, however, the Nin closed at 6.39, while Sony fell to 6.49. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://blog.wired.com/gadgets/2007/06/nintendo-market.html"><P>"How the mighty have fallen, etc.," as applied to Sony's gaming and portable music efforts, is fast becoming a cliche. Can this corporation, so bloated that every other executive has a list of titles to rival a medieval European monarch, turn its fortunes around? Is it agile enough to reposition the PS3, as Sir Howard believes it can? </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://blog.wired.com/gadgets/2007/06/nintendo-market.html"><P>This is all the result of Sony never having had a decent mascot. </P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/9B6BB808-994D-4A54-824C-D73577F761EC/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
