So on my daily quest for interesting news I ran across this tasty little piece of information. Japan's Nikkan is reporting that Sony along with Toshiba will be ready to mass produce it's new 45nm Cell processor in 2009. The new chip will be smaller and cheaper to produce than the PS3's current 65nm processor. The processor also requires 40% less power run which in return produces less heat. How does that benefit gamers?

Well hopefully if the PS3 is cheaper to produce we can see a price drop in the foreseeable future or even maybe a re-design of the current PS3, if it produces less heat...maybe a smaller PS3 could happen... I guess only time will tell.
