As reported by BBC news.

The three firms have been working on the chip since 2001 but before now few details have been released about how it might function.  [Sony, IBM and Toshiba.]   

The PlayStation 3 is expected in 2006 but developers are expecting to get prototypes early next year to tune games that will appear on it at launch.

The three firms claim that the Cell chip will be up to 10 times more powerful than existing processors.

"Current PC architecture is nearing its limits."

As well as being inside the PlayStation 3, the chip will also be used inside high-definition TVs and powerful computers.


Well, read it yourself. The future's all about media-merger then?
