But they just added backwards compatibility.

Wait that sounds wrong.......

Oh they remove backwards compatibility, and are going to add TV functions. That makes more sense, since it is a gaming system.]]>Oct 11th 2007 10:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/
I was supposed to put on my flame suit first :)

(puts on flame now) :)

I will buy a PS3 btw (so I am not just some fanboy), when more games that interest me come out (hopefully the price will be cheaper). Remake FF7 and I am sold :)]]>Oct 11th 2007 10:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/Oct 11th 2007 12:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/Oct 11th 2007 8:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/Oct 11th 2007 8:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/Oct 11th 2007 8:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/
The Windows Media Center/XBox combination runs relatively nice - I've been playing with the Internet TV beta on my 56" HDTV and the quality is decent.

Hopefully Sony will find a way to make a competitive move in the states... I'd love to find a way to get rid of Comcast and see console manufacturers create a next-gen cable tv platform.]]>Oct 11th 2007 10:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/Oct 11th 2007 12:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/Oct 11th 2007 8:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/

Own one, not a fanboy, need better games.]]>Oct 11th 2007 10:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/Oct 11th 2007 8:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/Oct 11th 2007 8:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/Oct 11th 2007 12:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/

My iPhone (which is great, but could do so much more) does the same thing! :)]]>Oct 11th 2007 11:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/
It's like robbing the elderly or murder!

Seriously though the more I get for my money the better, I bought a PS3 for multiple reasons as did most people who bought it after Xmas '06. If you don't own one cool. If you do that's cool too.

Be a Fan, not a Fanboy...]]>Oct 11th 2007 12:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/Oct 11th 2007 12:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/11/sonys-playstation-3-to-double-as-iptv-set-top-box/
Give me the ability to stream my VOB/DVD files!!! BTW, yes I know I can do transcoding on the fly and/or transcode my existing files , but I lose video quality and valuable time in the process!]]>Oct 11th 2007 6:14PM
