Tokyo: The Electronics Promised Land

I’ve under no circumstances been to Norway, until finally that takes place, I will not know what it’s like to pay a visit to the spot of your ancestry. For the last couple days, this question has been spinning by way of my mind as I took my minor Sony camera through the streets of Tokyo.

Not pretty the futuristic, Jetson-like city I had to start with imagined, but Tokyo is undoubtedly numerous few ways ahead of most. It started off at the immigration offices. Passport stamp? I really don't imagine so — a lot more like a barcode printout with a digital fingerprint scan. Then, the efficiency and precision of the bullet trains was staggering, waitresses took my order on a contraption resembling an iPhone rather than a notepad, and a go to to Akihabara (electronics city, pictured above) gives a dizzying sum of discounted electronics and seizure-inducing street lights.

I did my ideal to approach this phenomena with indifference — this is Japan immediately after all — until finally I stepped foot into the Sony showroom in the Ginza spot of town. This is the place the current and future Sony strategies are on show. Let me inform you, the potential is going to be interesting. Concert excellent earbuds and a dwelling theater Bill Gates would be interested in. Then I turned into Tony Stark from Ironman with the new giant display touch personal computers that are on their way. Correction: the long term is going to be very great.

As I walked away from the developing I pulled out my Cybershot from my pocket. I took a picture of the signal on the the setting up and believed, “for this little camera, this must be a good deal like the Promised Land.”

With all that I’ve observed and skilled in my short time in Tokyo, I’m turning into convinced it might be a Promised Land for a lot more than just my tiny point and shoot.
