IBM quietly begins work on new production plant, whilst Toshiba claim development has entered the final stage…
TVG today learnt that IBM has begun a major expansion of it processor manufacturing plant in Wiccopee New York, which has been widely suggested for the need to produce CELL processor chips ahead of the launch of the Playstation3.
Itâs believed that the plant will be finished in 15 months, and that work is commencing at a rapid pace to ensure the plant opens on time and is ready for full-scale production of the CELL processor.
Although there has been a distinct lack of publicity surrounding the expansion, itâs believed that the $1 billion project has benefited from a $325 million cash injection by Sony Corporation, amidst claims that theyâll need to produce at least 10 million processors within the first year of manufacturing.
The news comes after comments from Toshibaâs President, Tadashi Okamura, who recently told the well-respected Nihon Keizai Shimbun, that development on the CELL processor has entered into the final stage.
As Playstation fans will recall, Sony Computer Entertainmentâs Ken Kutaragi, claimed that the Playstation3 will make its debut at next yearâs E3 event, with all eyes turned towards the forthcoming Tokyo Game Show for further announcements.
Weâll have more information soon.
