Panasonic is part of Matsushita, which owns a long list of brand names in electronics (Panasonic, National, JVC, Technics, etc.). It's a direct competitor to Sony, so it's hard to imagine either company building products for the other, especially in the domain of video, where their competition is especially keen. Remember, Matsushita developed VHS, whereas Sony developed Betamax--and we all know how that turned out.
