"In an intriguing turn of events, Sony executive Izumi Kawanishi has illuminated some of his company's PlayStation 3 Linux plans, indicating that it will be possible for individual 'homebrew' coders to create playable content for PS3, something actively blocked for Sony's PSP handheld."

I remember Carmack giving "props" to Sony for making their system open to indies in his Quakecon 2005 keynote.

There's a lot we don't know about like how much hardware we have access to and how applications will be shared between users, but I am really psyched about this idea.

edit: damn you can't delete a post? I just realized this is talked about in the interviews thread
