Late last week, Japanese electronics maker Sharp showed off its new 3D touchscreen display.
Facing fines of up to 10% of their sales on DS displays, Hitachi Display and Sharp are to be investigated by the Fair Trade Commission, Japan’s fair trade group. According to eNews 2.0:
… the institution said on Thursday that the two electronics companies would be investigated because they were suspected of fixing prices of display panels for Nintendo’s DS portable gaming devices. The Commission’s investigators have already searched a few factories and offices owned by Sharp and Hitachi’s display unit, Hitachi Display.
