Kernel patches from Sony also reach the 2.6 kernel:
http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=f58a9d171a346afb1b09190427e6c28c6118703e
I think that Microsoft made a mistake by competing with Sony. Linux has just
earned a new super-wealthy friend. They use Linux in other products too,
e.g. the Mylo.
