But the 3D train is on the track, and we at Sony are ready to drive it home."

CellStories offers a handful of literature for free NEW YORK - A website launched on Tuesday will post a short story every weekday to any Web-enabled cellphone for free in what some see as an underground challenge to dominant digital reading devices such as Amazon's Kindle.

Germany: Google book deal violates copyright law WASHINGTON - Google Inc's <GOOG.O> plan to digitize millions of books would violate German copyright law and the country's privacy protections for Internet users, the German government said in a U.S. court filing.

EBay to sell 65 percent of Skype for $1.9 billion NEW YORK - Internet auction house EBay Inc <EBAY.O> plans to sell a majority stake in its online phone unit Skype for $1.9 billion to private investors including Silver Lake, a deal analysts said was worth more than expected but may curb eBay's growth potential. The deal valued Skype at $2.75 billion but was well below the $3.1 billion eBay spent in acquiring Skype, and shares in eBay fell more than 2 percent after the news. Music label video site Vevo in talks with CBS, NBC NEW YORK - Vevo, an online music video start-up backed by two major music labels and supported by YouTube's technology platform, is in talks with CBS Corp <CBS.N> and NBC to license and develop shows for the Web, according to two people familiar with the talks.
