No no no... this is wrong for them. If they're goign to make PocketPC software then they need to make a PocketPC and not a Palm Pilot.

No one can make Mac's but Mac, Mac IS Mac. And everything else in the world is "IBM Compatible" or "Windows" (or *nix, etc, but that's not the point).

It's not exactly a good business strategy to release a blockbuster game for a device that directly competes with the one that you are currently producing.

Yeah, but I don't think that Sony thinks the PPC version will be a "blockbuster game". Just because the PC version was doesn't mean this will.

I see what you mean, Moose. It's sort of like selling MACs without MAC compatible software, and Windows software without the machines to run it on; in the same store.
