The Chinese-language Economic Daily News (EDN) reported today that Asustek Computer has secured orders for Sony's PlayStation 3 (PS3) and PSP (PlayStation Portable) game consoles, with mass shipments slated for this Christmas season.
Asustek, however, denied the rumor and claimed that it has no knowledge of the report, the paper cited a company spokesperson as saying.
Market sources expect Asustek's revenues in the latter half of this year to exceed NT$300 billion (US$9.2 billion), accounting for about 60% of its full-year revenue forecast for 2006.
