Small, cramped, harshly lit, staffed with know-nothings and not enough of them, poorly laid out, inadequate pricing signage, and with no conspicuous signage outside to let you know the store exists.
That's okay, Sony. You don't have to advertise your non-PS3 products. I'm sure everyone knows about your products without any promotional materials.

Small: Apple's 57th Street and SoHo stores are not small.
Cramped: They're not as cramped as the Sony Plaza store either
Harshly lit: Apple stores are brightly lit. Sony's Plaza store is lit with blinding track lights.
Staffed with know-nothings and not enough of them: Apple's tealshirts do know their products. They're well indoctrinated.
Poorly laid out: I'll take the big open space of an Apple Store over the narrow winding walkway of the Plaza store any day.
Inadequate pricing signage: I don't recall seeing any pricing signage at Sony's Plaza store
No conspicuous signage outside to let you know the store exists: There's a large window display but the flagship plaza store is in some office building. The 57th Street Apple Store is impossible to miss.

I was in a Sony Store recently and asked about a TV and everything seemed so stilted, as if I were Oliver Twist asking for more porridge. It's like you just want to get out of there as soon as you can, like you're in some unfriendly person's unlived-in living room.
