I dont consider what Sony doing as officially supporting. They're just selling it to distributors, as for the PS2 for them it's a free tradeoff, they sell the console at a slightly higher price then other places to the retailers, the retailers mod it, and thus no one can go back to them to claim warranty so no lost for Sony.

Oh yes definetly played with Singaporean ppl before. Elson, Merdeka.

If you try to play games with ppl in the US, obviously you're gonna have a lot of lag issues. But.. if you know people locally like our community here you usually get games with very low ping rates and low lag...

As long as the host remembers to turn off all his torrents lar!
