News \ TV on your PS3
From one of my sons magazines ("Krash") it seems that we will soon get a TV add-on for our PS3 (HD as well). Enabling us to watch and record (& if you have a PSP transfer it over). At around a $100 will be cheaper than a normal HD Set top box.
Exact timing wasn't disclosed (middle of year) in the article but this addition will make the PS3 the ultimate home media centre...as if it wasn't already!

Already have set top box, HDD recorder etc.
One thing to think about is, if you buy one of these and watch it through your TV all the time... how will that effect the overall life of your PS3???
I'm just leaving my PS3 for games and divx

This has been in the air for some time but thought it was only going to be released in Japan and Europe at the moment..?

Dagamaster, the unit is also detailed on Sony's own Australian site
au.playstation.com/ also there was a legal problem with regards to the EPG (Electronic Program Guide) & Channel 9, subsequently resolved. Further information is in this article
www.smarthouse.com.au/
where it also shows in UK they may go one step further and add pay per view facilities and for you PSP owners (Vinzor) yes you can stream to your PSP from your PS3 live TV !

I didn't realise Rashy, just saw the clipping and then only found those articles you pointed to after I posted the above. Couldn't remove the thread but at least brings it back to everyones attention.
