SAN DIEGO, CA - A senior executive at
Sony has reported solid U.S. sales for the company in the first two months of the year, despite economic concerns.
"We have already had a solid January and February," said Stan Glasgow, Sony US president and COO.
He noted that the company had a record holiday sales season, and that
it had gained market share for some products. He added that he expected
total global sales of Blu-ray high-definition movie players produced by
all manufacturers to reach approximately 5 million in 2008, and that
most will be sold in the U.S.
