looking at this web page on my ps3 and the video won't play. youtube works but bbc iplayer doesn't. i am probably the biggest fan of the ps3 but i believe the browser has much work that is needed if it is to even come close to internet explorer on the PC. i know it's not it's main function but it would be nice to play videos on websites on my telly

Everything sounds cool with the 2.20 update. I guess the big update that many PS3 owners are wanting is in-game XMB, but the Blu-Ray update is still pretty nice.

 

I wonder if that BD Live feature could be used with future Playstation 3 games for Exclusive Downloadable content? Hmmm. It sounds like a possibility to me. I'm pretty sure that Sony will figure out some way to incorporate BD Live with PS3 games.

I agree with comment #11. I use this sight as my ps3 home page and would like to see the videos using my ps3 browser. Hint to psu there has to be a way for you to post it in a ps3 and pc format?

Why is  there an ad for a Wii-exclusive game on this page?

 

Well, yeah, I also think it's nice for Sony to explain it to us in-depth :)

@childofillusions

Its great that they show us a video but have they showed us everything? We all know from previous updates that they provide us with a list and then later you read of another feature that was not mentioned in the list. Why Sony do this?

With the 'save file' feature, that was there before 2.20. I have saved images (that didn't have a link) from the web by pressing triangle to bring up the side bar and there somewhere is the option to save target.
