Sony responds to Dutch console problem
"We'll fix it"
Sony has moved to allay fears that environmental problems with 1.3 million impounded PSone units in the Netherlands could cause supply problems for the rest of Europe this Christmas. As well as the 1.3m consoles, 800,000 accessory items were seized due to high levels of cadmium. It is thought that the problem lies within the cables supplied with PSone, and that Sony will release a new batch of consoles and cables by the middle of this month. It is not yet known what will become of the grounded consoles and accessories. Related Feature - PSone grounded
