Part of the the blurb

An executive at Sony New Zealand appears to have the let the cat out of the bag by revealing the company plans to build a TV tuner into its Playstation 3 games console next year, a move that would turn every PS3 console sold in New Zealand into a Freeview set-top box.

Looks good for the future. :thumbs:

579963 2007-08-12 23:18:00 Saw that ae...if thats turns out to be the case and it doesn't bump up the price by another $200, they are gonna sell like hotcakes. Imagine - a HD/Blu-Ray player (maybe recorder, in the future?? Heres hoping) a Digital TV tuner, a HDD (hopefully upgradable/use external USB/firewire HDD??).. over 1TB of storage space easy.. :lol: Storing HD movies and TV??? And of course, the great game playing capabilities of a PS3.

Go Sony!
