Last I checked Sony is a "hardware" company and all this means is that Sony has the prototype and the finished product.  They can farm out the fabrication to any firm willing to manufacture the Cell; dead in the water seems like a miss leading thread title to me.  Plus they have the technology so they (Sony) can make improvements on it with the help of contracted IBM engineers.  I believe the thread is meant purely for flaimbait (or vgdollars)......nothing more to see, everyone move along.

Fabrication of a processor is not something you "farm out", especially a chip designed by IBM to begin with.
