PS2 chips to be included in Sony flat panel TVs
Don't expect to have the ability to play games -- the chips will be driving the brains of the televisions, for faster menus and processing.
From Forbes, "Sony Corp plans to install its high-performance Playstation 2 game console chips in flat-panel TVs due for release this fall, in an apparent effort to catch up with Sharp Corp and other firms in the flat-panel TV market, the Nihon Keizai Shimbun reported, citing unidentified company sources."
"The chips' ability to handle detailed computer graphics will improve the TV's image-processing capacity, leading to faster on-screen control for selecting the type of TV broadcasts or viewing image data stored on digital or video cameras, the report said."
