Sanyo Takeover Possible by Panasonic

Moriguchi, Osaka, Japan, November 6, 2008 - The Wall Street Journal reports that the pending takeover of Sanyo by Panasonic would yield a "dominant force" in the lithium-ion battery market. Both Sanyo and Panasonic have deals with automakers to provide batteries, but Panasonic's current focus is on nickel metal hydride batteries. According to the WSJ, Sanyo's goal is to capture 40 percent of the lithium-ion battery market for vehicles. Key investors like Goldman Sachs stand to gain in a merger, which WSJ says would "dwarf" Sanyo's second biggest rival, Sony's market share. Current deals to provide hybrid electric vehicle batteries are already in progress between Sanyo and Volkswagen, as well as for Honda's new hybrid electric Insight. -

Australian Internet Filters Have No Real Opt-Out; Only Opt-In To Fewer Filters

We've covered the long history of Australian politicians looking to set up their own censored internet "to protect the children" (of course). The plans have changed over time, but the end goal has always been the same: to force ISPs to block a list of sites provided by the government. In the latest incarnation, the plan supposedly included an "opt-out" option, where a web surfer could specifically ask to opt-out of the filters (effectively asking someone to sign up for a "porn-surfing license"). That, on its own, might scare some people off, but now it turns out that the opt-out isn't really an opt-out. Instead, it's just opting you in to a somewhat less restrictive blacklist. Once again, this idea of mandatory filtering out of "bad" sites on the internet sets a dangerous precedent.

United Kingdom: Sanyo shares up ahead of expected Panasonic deal

Panasonic Corp said it would acquire smaller rival Sanyo Electric Co, creating Japan's top electronics maker and foreshadowing further consolidation in an industry hit by slowing consumer demand. The acquisition, which one analyst estimated could cost about $8.8 billion, would fortify Panasonic's competitiveness in rechargeable batteries and solar power equipment as demand grows for greener energy sources. Panasonic would at the same time become the world's second-largest conglomerate with a major electronics division, behind General Electric and surpassing Hitachi Ltd as the biggest electronics maker in Japan. But the deal carries risks and Panasonic has not said what it might pay for Sanyo, or what it plans to do with the latter's loss-making businesses such as home appliances and microchips.

Panasonic AE3000 -- Review of Panasonic's latest 1080p home theater projector
