Muscat Electronics loses Sony agency
I was testing to post directly from my phone using Shozu. After signing up and installing the software on your phone you can just take a picture, add a heading and a caption and send it directly to a blog. It worked well, but I wasn't aware it was going to add such a big logo below it.
As for the Muscat Electronics/Jumbo story, they've been fighting for a while it's been reported a few times in the UAE press but never mentioned in our papers - as usual. Jumbo Electronics is the agent for Sony in the UAE. Now they will have a direct presence in Oman, I suppose. I don't see how this will make a difference to us here. Jumbo was a partner in Muscat Electronics and yet their prices were always much higher than Dubai. In the UAE they've invested millions in having showrooms all over the place while here in Oman they've always been in the worst locations with the worst salespeople, and prices for Sony are so high that it doesn't make sense how it's the same company as Dubai.
