MANY INVESTORS and industry people still believe that the Nvidia deal with Sony is all about the Playstation 3. Well, we have to admit that Playstation 3 plays a huge role in this deal but there is more to their relationship than that.
Our informative friends tell us that Nvidia might end up in many Sony consumers’ products. We don`t have any clear guidelines about the subject but Nvidia might end up in any High Definition content devices that might need Nvidia features.
The Sony Cell processor will end up embedded in future TVs and our talkative friends believe that Nvidia chips might end up in the same sorts of devices. Nvidia in your TV. What is the world coming too? Where is the end of it?
Sony and Nvidia will collaborate and potentially put chips in set top boxes or even rack mounted servers. Those devices would probably sit next to your next generation TV, if you have room for them in your terraced house or one bedroom flat.
This actually implies that Nvidia will likely be spread around the Sony ``run`` vision for digital home and it actually means that Nvidia and Sony deal is considerably broader than just the future PlayStation 3. µ
