anyone tested any availability for on those PS3 accesories (such as the DS3 , PS3 eye and the BD remote) in those SonyStyle store?

no need to wait for sony style , u can get those at any gameshop...

has anyone updated to the new firmware yet. ive checked it on the site and its v. 2.43. just wondering if everything is ok. im kinda paranoid after everyones ps3 kaput. after 2.40 is it safe?

ah ha... not sure but does the any shop provides the similar warranty to Sony Sytle?

Just bought a DS3 controller from them (the Curve)... they mention 1 year warranty with it.. also, there is a nice HT set which offers 3 HDMI in and 1 HDMI out... looks schweet...for those who intend to get the 5.1 out from the PS3 .... am looking for review now...

some HDMI allow input in this is mainly for your convenience in switching channels and what not. but the audio will still play through the TV. or whatever the HDMI out is plugged into. This is how my HT is at least. and I needed to get an optical cable to connect the ps3 to the HT for the Surround sound to work. im using yamaha v363 ... i think. im sure not all HT is like this but i thought i would give you a heads up to check it out.

is it my ps3 and broadband combination or is the p33 browser by design is very very slow? it takes quite a while to load a page. can we download say firefox and use it on the machine?

Hi guys I'm planning to buy a PS3 VERY VERY soon. I'm thinking of the Malaysia set..but it's almost impossible to get one OTHER than sony style. My question is - what do the sifus here think of the SG set? Any particular problems or is the MY set just better because of the warranty?

Thanks in advance.

Its how its built. The PS3's browser doesn't work well with XML, Java and even flash(although flash has been vastly improved since 2 years ago). So yea thats how it goes. You cannot download FF to the PS3 however.

We can only hope if there will be a PS3 version of Google Chrome since Sony and Google seems to have a rather nice partnership now.

PS3 Malaysian Official set available here at PS Zone: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/470450

if u buy sony playstation 3 80gb malaysian edition , u will get 1 year warranty.Doesnt matter where u buy the console.As long as u registered the console via online then it should be no probs.

Added on October 3, 2008, 9:48 ami do believe the lens prob 100% not because of the firmware...and yes v 2.43 totally safe , as long as u downloaded it from playstation official site , it should be okey.

as sony make a statement : the firmware will not harm the console (PS3).

Thanks ben. Anyone else have any input? Basically if I register my PS3 online it doesn't matter which region it's from?

Like me myself i do registered my PS3 80GB Malaysian Edition at Playstation.Com ( Malaysia ) : http://asia.playstation.com/eng_my/index.php

Hi

Can PS3 infected with virus.
ie, I plug in usb drive into the PS3, to play movies.

May be,better scan the usb drive first via pc before downloaded something from it to ur ps3

i was hoping to surf the net from the living room using the ps3, looks like i have to go back to connecting a vga cable to the tv from my laptop. sigh!

Wondering do anyone get something to protect their PS3?
Saw this in PA.
Is this useful? Local shop have this?

as far as I know, the ps3 can't get virus since virus is a type of rogue code. If viruses were possible on the ps3, that means the ps3 has been hacked.

Has the ps3 been hacked? I don't think so, otherwise you'll see bootleg games for ps3 available.


Additionally, most viruses are written for the windows and DOS platform. The PS3 OS definately does not run on windows/DOS. Much like how the mac has far fewer viruses (if any) than windows.

TQ. So no worry if surf or plug in usb drive. But, better be safe - scan it first.

One more question, is it possible to set a password, so other people cant access the PS3, even he turn it on..

I've been hunting for this as well, but i don't think they have it here yet

cool little tidbit : plugging in a sony mp3 walkman will cause the music tab in XMB to show the walkman logo for your storage device. Their devices work together!

hehe yup! it'll be really embarrassing for sony if it didn't recognize their own devices
