NvidiaAccording to reports coming in, Nvidia may be sticking around with Sony, long after the launch of Sony's PS3 next year. David Kirk, Nvidia's chief scientist and leader of the teams behind the recent GeForce 7800 graphics card and PS3 GPU has hinted that Nvidia will be working with Sony closely and extensively in the future.

The Nvidia heavyweight told UK website Bit-Tech that their relationship with Sony thus far has been 'great' and that both companies shared a much broader vision for the future of graphics.

While NVIDIA's dealings with Microsoft have traditionally been based around a customer-supplier relationship, NVIDIA has worked in close co-operation with the Japanese giant to design the RSX chip for its next-gen console.
