It makes sense to use the Cell as the base for their next CPU ...
In many ways, the Cell is a chronic underperforming processor and this could be addressed while it was being updated for the next generation of system. While the theoritical processing power of the CPU might only end up being 2 to 4 times the Cell processor from the PS3, the real world performance could end up being far beyond that. On top of that, it should make implementing backwards compatibility far easier.
