I must admit it seems unlikely, but then again we will have to wait and see for the p1000 when ever it comes out

hmm teh cell processor is not a processor intended for pc's. It's a risc processor designed by IBM and used in servers and now also for game computers. The processor has the size of a pc processor and maybe even higher power consumption. For cooling you need at least a big heatsink and even better with it's own fan for cooling.
In fact, the Cell may well be used in PC's as it can run a variety of different OS quite competently (Mac OSX and Linux deffo so far) It was also specifically designed around Sony's criteria, but based upon existing server technology.
Obviously the processor technology is going to be used in small scale devices, but even more obviously it's not going to be implemented using the existing processor, that would be a totally retarded assumption.
