Mar 16th 2007 5:56AM Blakamin: stitifier was giving his qualified opinion. Nothing wrong with that.
I've not got either, I've got 2 high end mobile phones. The Sony Erricson K800i is a great camera and MP3 player, and my Treo is touchscreen and QWERTY. I wish the K800 was touchscreen and QWERTY, and I wish the Treo had a camera worth 5p.
Until I can get both consoles, I'll not bother with either. Or I'll just wait until the next one comes out, and buy it, if it contains *all* the features I want. Odds are, though, the mobile phones will get there first!
If you don't believe me, go look at the sales of even an average mobile, compared to the best selling mobile games platform. Here's a hint- ringtones alone were worth more last year!

Mar 16th 2007 5:44AM Number 3 is the stand-out, imo. The one shown in the article is a diservice. Perhaps a South Central LA crack dealer wanted his one pimped?

Mar 15th 2007 3:53PM Simon, why would every player having a unique key even be a difficult thing? Every single one has a different serial number on the outside sticker, so changing a string whilst blowing the PROM isn't going to be at all hard. Plus, they are all supposed to be networked, so they could write an app that does a kind of DHCP for serial numbers, and assigns them automagically when connected. Either at the factory, or once connected at home.
I'm just not looking forward to having to bounce the ethernet via a US proxy to watch a film, once they decide to wreck the grey market trading of films from other countries. That will just be a pain in the arse. Probably just download them instead... After all, you could get what, 20 to 50 MP4 movies on a single BluRay disc?
