Sony's response to the report on deal with Toyota

  So, I have yet to get hold of a hard copy of the most recent issue of Nikkei Business, and I plan to post an English translation/excerpt as soon as I do, but for the time being here is the translation of Sony's public response to yesterday's report on the deal with Toyota.

  "Sony has not transferred its robotics research and development results including AIBO and QRIO, nor the organization involved in robotics research. In the end of March 2007, Sony transferred to Toyota Motor the R&D results of a single-seated transporter that Sony had been working on as a project. Some of the Sony employees that worked on the R&D are currently on lease for a specific period of time to Toyota so that they can transfer the know-how. Sony is not disclosing the details of the R&D conducted within the company."
