NEVER ever said the PS3 will launch on the first day of spring. I'm 100% like l-b when he mentioned that spring goes mostly through June. Yet for some reason you never take that part of my sentence into account. I personnally think the PS3 might lauch in May, but who knows. No information does not = Bad information.

As it's software, it'll be more flexible than traditional players... This ASIC by Sigma Design for the Pioneer BD player is only able to decode 2 HD streams while Cell can decode 12. Advanced audio codecs are also handled in software on Cell. Then RSX on top of that. It's terrific.Titanio said:Posted?

I said that Sony would at least show PS3 running a HD demo at CES while people were calling me sensationalist for demanding that Sony AT LEAST show PS3 non-gaming features at CES. It sure makes a hell of alot more sense than showing them at E3.mckmas8808 said:

Oh yeah I remember that. I was right there with you agreeing while everybody else was eating you alive.
Yeah I agreed with you step by step. It would have been stupid for Sony not to.

If Sony truly has a plan for VoD and other multimedia related functionality online and offline with the PS3, shouldn't we be hearing about it at CES?

Yes we should. Hopefully Howard will be smart enough to say something.

I don't think ti really matters; if they announce any such features at the Feb event and skip over it here, none of us will fault them retroactively. Sony can just kind of do what it wants in this regard - we're a captive audience and they know it.

Sure, but I would guess if we don't hear about their plan now, there isn't a real plan at all. it's a little late in the game, and this is the ideal venue to announce it.
