Rumor: Sony Licenses PowerVR Tech For PSP2 Quote:

Note that a recent announcement Imagination made only mentioned that it signed a deal with a "major international consumer electronics company," without specifically naming Sony. So, we're carefully filing this under rumor for now, but it could very well turn out to be true, seeing as Imagination's PowerVR technology is also used in the iPhone.
Either way, don't expect to see the PSP2 anytime soon. We reckon it's still a couple years off at the least. Has Imagination added Sony to Apple consumer design win? [EETimes] |
