Hitachi, Sharp Offices Raided

The Japanese Fair Trade Commission raided the offices of Hitachi and Sharp for allegedly fixing display prices for the Nintendo DS. Gee, I wonder who turned them in.

Officials of the Fair Trade Commission inspected offices and outlets of Sharp and Hitachi Displays Ltd., Hitachi Ltd.'s wholly-owned subsidiary, company officials said. "It is true that the Fair Trade Commission is doing an on-the-spot inspection on our company, but we are still trying to confirm further details," said a spokeswoman for Sharp.
