Should Sony celebrate now? Should Apple worry? Maybe not yet but soon. You see, the iPod has been selling like pancakes all over the world for years but not this time and in Japan. Sony has finally outsold Apple with their Walkman against the iPod.
According to research firm BCN, Sony is the no. 1 in the PMP category last August. It was the first time since the group started their sales surveys.
Last August, Sony Walkman had a 47.8 percent share against the 44 percent of the iPod.
Will this change now that new iPod models have been revealed yesterday?
