An online bank venture will eventually let users make financial transactions through Sony's PlayStation2 game console. Sony announced in December that it was considering setting up the Internet bank. The PlayStation2, launched March 4 in Japan, is equipped to connect to the Internet. It is expected to go on sale in the United States later this year. The Internet bank combines Sony's technical know-how with Sakura's knowledge of Japan's banking industry and J.P. Morgan's expertise in offering investment advice to clients, Sony said.
