IBM's 45nm cell processor.
(Credit: IBM)Ah, the challenges of being a game-console manufacturer. Blogger Sean Hollister at GameCyte says that Japanese tech news site PC Watch is reporting that, in a potential cost-savings move, Sony is considering using a tweaked version of the PS3's current cell processor in the upcoming PS4--which isn't due out until at least 2010.

because the PS3 is matters of raw power isn't enough to last until the PS5 comes, if it does come some day(2015?) 9 years of use is just too much for the same processor
