The award-winning Battlefield franchise invades the high tech frontlines of modern warfare in the new sequel, Battlefield 2™. The game brings the intensity and excitement of Battlefield 1942™ into the modern era with enhanced team play and the latest, most technologically advanced vehicles and weapons systems available to man.

In Battlefield 2, players will choose to fight for one of three military superpowers: the United States, the Chinese, or the newly formed Middle East Coalition. Armed with the latest modern weaponry, players can take control of any of the game’s 30+ vehicles to engage in major conflicts with over 64 players in some of the largest online battles on the PC. Additionally, persistent character growth allows players to rise through the ranks and attain the ultimate rank of General.

An all-new game engine and physics system brings the modern battlefield to life like never before. The new material penetration feature measures weapons’ ability to fire through barriers based on their composition and players will need to know the difference between concealment and cover in order to survive.

Each map in Battlefield 2 adjusts in scale to support the number of players in the world, providing the ideal vehicle- to-player ratio and an optimized gameplay experience.

Enhanced team play features allow players to enter the action on the front lines as part of a formal squad, or work behind the scenes in Commander Mode to direct the strategic assaults of their teammates.

In Brief: Panasonic moves up plasma display expansion plans

Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., better known by its Panasonic brand name, is moving up expansion plans for plasma display panel (PDP) production in response to high demand.

The company is planning to start second phase production at a state-of-the-art factory in Amagasaki, west Japan, in July 2006, four months ahead of the original plan. The factory, which Panasonic says is the largest PDP plant in the world, began operating in September this year two months ahead of schedule. When the expansion work in Amagasaki is complete the factory will be capable of producing 250,000 panels per month to take Panasonic's total output to a maximum of 425,000 panels per month. Panasonic said it expects global demand to reach 10 million units in 2006 and 25 million units in 2010.

Qualcomm has tapped Samsung Electronics to manufacture wireless chip sets on a contract basis. Samsung will produce CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) and W-CDMA (Wideband CDMA) wireless chip sets for Qualcomm. The chip sets, which are used in cell phones, will be produced using 90-nanometer process technology, with more advanced processes being employed in the future. When describing process technology, the number refers to the size of the smallest feature that can be created on a chip. More advanced production processes allow designers to shrink the size of their chips, which generally results in lower power consumption and lower manufacturing costs. Financial details of the deal were not disclosed.
