Sony Ericsson rises from the grave for tennis tournament next week
There's no longer any such thing as Sony Ericsson — it's all just Sony now — but try telling that to the estimated 300,000+ attendees of the Sony Ericsson Open tennis tournament. Starting Monday, ESPN2, the Tennis Channel and CBS will all be broadcasting "73.5 thrilling hours of domestic coverage" from an event with a zombie sponsor, whose banners and defunct logos will no doubt feature in almost every shot. Quite possibly the best part? While Sony Ericsson originally signed the event for just four years back in 2006, last year it renewed its sponsorship through 2014. If you'd like to show your solidarity, it's not hard: the going rate for a LiveView is just $40 on eBay right now.
