I've been saying this for ages, - PS3 is after the PC market, the media
centre market, the game console market and the dvd player market and and
and ...
This is why a $499 price tag is not so bad, when you consider that most
people could dump their remaining boxes.
I imagine that fitting a dvbtv card to a ps3 won't be all that
difficult, or a radio card, and so on.
It might be the only box the next generation of students need (along
with a flat monitor, of course), and an N770 to take in their pocket.
