Just days after SCE president Ken Kutaragi declared an end to negotiations with Toshiba over a unified disc format, reports say discussions could reopen within weeks.

According to Nikkei Net, Sony and Toshiba may come back to the table after shareholder meetings scheduled to take place later this month.

These will coincide with management reshuffles for both companies - Sony Computer Entertainment America CEO Howard Stringer is already set to take over as group CEO tomorrow, while Ryoji Chubachi will become group president. Toshiba vice president Atsutoshi Nishida will take on the role of CEO from June 24.
