Microsoft Getting Into Image Sensors?

Haaretz and Reuters report that Microsoft is negotiating to acquire the Israeli startup 3DV Systems for about $35M. 3DV Systems develops 3D imaging technology for digital cameras that it sells, called ZCams (formerly Z-Sense). Microsoft apparently plans to use 3DV Systems' technology in its own gaming technology, probably in the Xbox 360.

If these reports are true, we would finally have one image sensor maker that is not losing money in these times.
