September 16th, 2007
Sony is trying to sell its Cell chip production plant, the one supplying chips to the PlayStation 3. The potential buyer, Toshiba, is one of the three original development partners for the Cell (with IBM as well). It’s an expected move from Sony, as they have always planned to shift from production to development only, outsourcing the production to third parties. Japan’s Business Nikkei says the deal is worth some 100 Billion Yen, close to $870 million.
