In an extraordinary piece of public relations, every one of the 125 or so people who attended the midnight launch event at Virgin Megastore last night were given a 46-inch Sony Bravia LCD television. Most of those present were too stunned to say anything -- some, perhaps wary due to past promises from Sony, even thought it was a joke.
"I'm speechless, I still don't believe it. I think it's a hoax," said Jason Sarris, from Wood Green in London. The TVs should be delivered in the next week or so, according to Sony Computer Entertainment UK's managing director, Ray Maguire.
