    ATI acquires Bitboys Oy, a leading developer of mobile graphics technology

    MARKHAM, ONTARIO, May 2, 2006 (CCNMatthews via COMTEX News Network) -- ATI Technologies Inc. (TSX:ATY)(NASDAQ:ATYT) has acquired privately held Bitboys Oy, a 15-year veteran of the graphics industry for up to EUR 35.2 million (about US$44 million). The final value is subject to certain performance-related conditions. Bitboys brings valuable engineering experience, technology and customer relationships that enhance ATI's existing mobile phone multimedia offerings. Based in Finland, the Bitboys team will be fully integrated in to ATI's Handheld Business Unit, and form the nucleus for a key design centre for ATI in Europe.

    ATi needs to compete with nVidia, who has started dabbling in the mobile graphics market. And since Bitboys Oy atually has a good working mobile graphic solution, I guess it makes sense.

          Ah thats why my Nokis Phone is crap then.

          I guess ATI won't be producing any new mobile devices anytime soon.

                  Those three engineers throw a ball to each other in a circle and the software guy in the middle tries to catch it. That's Surround Gaming!
