Or the processor won't be used in the PS3 at all and will go into IBM's systems.

The heading is WRONG! It is not a new PS3 CPU!

Also IF they put a faster CPU into the PS3 surely this would make games designed for a 3.2ghz CELL to perhaps need an update to work.

Lastly the current PS3 cannot even acheive its full speed and power i.e. 2teraflops this was said by Sony and everyone missed it as THEORETICAL! Not actual!

The PS3 cannot do 2teraflops!

Absolutely valid opinion. However, it struck us that in this case, pulling a SCE executive along to the meeting simply for him to sit there and yawn about Blades would be a huge waste of time. Then again, it's a free junket in San Francisco...

At this time, it's all speculation of course. However, overlooking a new iteration of the Cell would have been daft.
