Sony's head of sales resigns
Source: GamesIndustry
_________ A spokesperson for SCE UK has confirmed to GamesIndustry.biz that sales boss Kevin Jowett has left the company to look for new opportunities elsewhere. The confirmation came after trade publication MCV reported that Jowett had resigned, and had left Sony immediately for reasons of confidentiality. Speaking to GI.biz Sony's David Wilson said, "He's resigned to pursue new opportunities outside of the industry." He added, "We wish him all the best in his future endeavours." Jowett became sales director in 1998 and is a well-known figure in the industry, particularly within the retail community. It's not yet clear how his resignation might affect Sony's plans for the European launch of PlayStation 3, which is now less than six weeks away. |

LOL LOL LOL LOL HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA this is sooooooooooooooooooo funny! I bet his job was on the line and he quit because he had to. He knew Blu-ray and the PS3 are starting to fail and he needed to get out fast before it's to late. Maybe he will join Toshiba or Mircosoft!

If he is at any rate responsible for bad sales, why would MS or Toshiba want to get this guy?
