Hmmm... I wonder if Revolution will be playable at E3?

Oh well this news piece gives us no clue what so ever. Lets investigate on the Playstation website for clues to the revolution where abouts.

cut the speclualtive crap, will ya? we know nothing, i tell ya, _nothing_ about the e3 playability of revolution, as nintendo did not bother to tell their developers, let alone the customer, what their plans for the system launch and availability are. doh, developers still have to put up with overclocked and refrigerated GC's for development (aka 'cold pizzas') and even if nintendo pulled a fast one and did present the revo at e3, it'd be the first functional unit ever, with some quick hack software ported over from the TI89 calculator of the console's chief engineer.
