Confirmed CELL 3.2GHz

I also appears to (re)confirm the internal PSU, with the AC-in labels. I know this was already confirmed, but people have still had doubts, but I think we can take this safely as final confirmation on the matter.
 
I'm not so sure about this. That was issued on Sept 11th, 2006, which means it's already over 4 days old ! Not to mention that the testing was done August 9th, which makes that over a month old! Sony could have downgraded it since then! :p :D

On a serious note, I found this bit interesting:

The EUT contains Bluetooth (Ver. 2.0+EDR) module and IEEE802.b/g WLAN module. Those modules do not transmit simultaneously.

Doesn't that seem odd? I'm sure my confusion stems from a lack of understanding or context, so, I'm hoping someone can clarify.
 
That would be funny, not being able to use wireless BlueTooth controllers at the same time as wireless networking!

Perhaps referring to the b/g of the wireless?

I was more interested in the presence of both ATA/SATA1 interfaces.. ATA for CompactFlash and SATA for BR/HD?

I really hope that's not true. It would be stupid if it is, being that most phones can have wireless AND blutooth active at the same time.
 
It's obviously not the case, unless there's some wordplay there we're not understanding.

It would basically preclude the PS3 from being online wirelessly while using a bluetooth controller. Does that make any sense at all? No.

So yeah, bluetooth and WiFI at the same time - let's put another stupid rumor to rest before it starts. ;)
 
Yeah, there are two reports on file at the FCC. One of them tests the Bluetooth module on its own, and the other the WLAN module. So the comment likely means that for their testing purposes, only one of them is active for the duration of the test.
 
I'm curious about the "33MHz (PCI)" part on the same line. Do you suppose there will be cards to upgrade the PS3 over time? :)
 
Possibly. It could be how they also plan to upgrade the core model. WIFI card for PCI makes a lot of sense.
Even if theres a PCI-Bus on PS3, you will need a soldering iron and incredible skills to attach a card to it. There just wont be a PCI-Slot.
 
It's probably there because CELL itself contains the controller, and CELL is not solely a PS3 part.

No RSX clock? LOL! :smile:
Not just no RSX clock, but no mention of RSX's existence. OH, NOEZ!! Does this mean that there won't be a GPU and we'll actually get the Cell-based GPU that everybody knew with absolute certainty was part of the original plan?! Maybe we'll get 128 SPEs, too!
