Yanks, Sony Sign Deal and a Few New Pics Too

From Bryan Hoch:

The Yankees and Sony Electronics announced an agreement Thursday that will deliver a corporate marketing and high-definition technology relationship to the new stadium, which is set to open April 16 vs. the Cleveland Indians.

Plans are for the new Yankee Stadium to have a Sony HD broadcast control room; more than 550 flat-panel BRAVIA and professional LCD HD television sets in the luxury suites, lounges, concourses, restaurants and administrative offices; plus Sony HD branding elements featured prominently throughout the stadium.

In addition, Sony PlayStation 3 entertainment systems and VAIO notebook computers will be available to fans in select locations throughout the Stadium.

This place is going to be one of the most state-of-the-art places in the sport, and for $1.3 billion+ it should be.

What's some new stadium news without some new pictures? Here's a few news shots of some of the details being added to the exterior and interior. These shots are from Flickr memeber Daniel, Peralta.
