Default Sony HiMD - another marketing disaster?

So who remembers Sony's cock-up in 1993, when they launched MD? One
rec/play walkman, one playback-only walkman (and no pre-recorded
titles)... no hi-fi separate deck.

11 years later... HiMD. Again, no sign of a hi-fi separate version. Do
we have to wait until 2006 for one, by which time any chance of what's
potentially a very good format getting established goes out the window?

Yes, a walkman is great, but we also want a hi-fi deck, and an in-car
player...
