In my opinion, Sony’s I270 will be able to merge the video, data and the graphics segments.

The price of Sony I270 is lesser than the prices of other products in data ($8000-15000), and graphics ($20000-24000). If Sony’s I270 is priced at $8000, it is priced attractively. Sony can easily penetrate into data and graphics segments but would be able to capture relatively less significant share of video application segment.
