Toshiba announced an SDTV upconverter using Sony's Cell Broadband Engine. I'm kinda surprised no one did something like that sooner.

Toshiba technically is inside of the Blu-ray player already. They co-developed the Cell Processor inside of the PS3 with Sony and IBM. I'm sure they are already getting a revenue share for every PS3 sold. However, the PS3 is not an exclusive BD Player but the Cell processor probably does some of the decoding.
