    Sony denies rumours of PS3 chip division sale

    Sony has denied reports that it will sell its production facilities for advanced chips used in the PlayStation 3 to Toshiba for nearly 100 billion yen (US$864 million).

    A deal reportedly would likely include lines for fabricating the Cell, which Sony co-developed with Toshiba and IBM for the PS3, as well as image-processing chips for game consoles and camcorders.

    "Although there was a report that our company will sell large-scale integrated circuit production lines to Toshiba, nothing has been decided," Sony said in a statement over the weekend.

    Toshiba issued a similar statement, also saying nothing has been decided.
