Well that’s about it. It’s slimmer. No, wait...it’s also silver. Satin Silver in fact, built to match the new wave of slimline PlayStation 2 hardware bound to be filling Christmas stockings later this year.
Ingeniously called the EyeToy 2, the new device will be manufactured by Nam Tai Electronics in Hong Kong and is expected to go on sale in the next three months.
“Given our previous success of manufacturing the first generation of EyeToy cameras, we are very delighted to once again have the opportunity to build the second generation of award-winning EyeToy cameras for PlayStation 2.” said Mr. Joseph Li, Chief Executive Officer of Nam Tai. “Nam Tai is encouraged by the continuous orders from Sony Computer Entertainment. This truly reflects the quality and reliability of our manufacturing services which have gained the confidence of our customers. With our solid track record in building high end electronic products and our commitment to providing the best services to our customers, we are confident that we will continue to deliver impressive growth in the foreseeable future.”
Thanks Joseph. After reading that, all of us at SPOnG are in no doubt whatsoever as to who is the best electronics outsourcing firm in the whole wide world.
We’ll bring you images of the new camera as soon as we get them.
