Not sure about this topic on General chatter, but i don't think it matches for wolds news Razz

http://www.neowin.net/news/microsoft-registers-microsoft-sonycom-partnership-imminent

Quote:
This is certainly the first time we've heard of any sort of collaboration between these two companies. It seems some eagle eyed users have picked up some strange new domain name registrations by the official Microsoft domain name registrar. Could this be the start of a new console partnership?

Users over on NeoGaf have found domain names "sony-microsoft.com" and "microsoft-sony.com" which is registered by the "Microsoft Corporation Domain Administrator" via "Corporate Domains, Inc." A quick background check verifies this information matches Microsofts other domains, such as microsoft.com, as well as 45,000 other domains.

There's been no official announcement (or even rumor) from Microsoft about any partnership with the company, but the registration leads us to suspect a partnership for the next Microsoft console could be incoming -- or -- Sony is planning on developing Windows Phones. Whilst both possibilities sound crazy, we wouldn't have expected the Microsoft/Nokia Windows Phone 7 partnership either.

Sony currently only develops Android phones, with the company recently releasing an Android touting phone that can play Playstation games, the Xperia Play. The company might want to be getting in on the next big thing early, and an announcement may be made in the near future.

What do you think of the domains? A collaboration for consoles? For Windows Phone? Or something else altogether? Let us know in the comments!

"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

It's gotta be a laptop, tablet or phone thing.
And phone seems doubtful, as MS seems to be leaning heavily toward Nokia on that.

On the gaming end, MS has no motivation to deal and Sony is too proud.
