Question 1: Let's say i'm registered under UK's address and I play Top Spin 3 online. Will Players from Malaysia or Asia able to join in my game?

Question 2: I found out that bluetooth headset is only for "voice input", means mic function. Sound still need to come from the TV or sound output. Is this really the case?? And is it the same even if I use USB headset?

Hmmm.. very disappointed if it's true wink.gif

Anyone know any good decoder to recommend? (apart from a big and bulky AV receiver!!) I remember last time Creative got his DTS-100 decoder ( i think) which works perfectly for a small set up like mine wink.gif

Thanks...

Oh.. I would like to ask what's the best decoder for a small set up place. I saw decoder like DTS-100 from Creative and not really keen on AV receiver as big as my PS3 !!!

Hi guys I am in Dilemma Between an HTPC and a PS3.
If i buy a HTPC it will cost me minimum RM 3000 Because I would Need a Blu Ray rom but I want a PC because I am a Download freak i dload 24/7 and I keep my PC on .

But If i buy a PS3 can Use it to dload from Internet and Keep it on 24/7???
Not playing 24/7 just keeping it idle 24/7 and it will dload in the Background??

PS3 is a very good Blu Ray Player no doubt costs only RM 1500 so Can I

1. KEEP it on 24/7 and use it to dload from Rapidshare or HTTP sites or from torrent? It uses Ubuntu right??
2.Can PS3 Play HD MKV files which are 1080p and 720p . I know it can play VOB and mp4 but i dont want to convert it because it will compromise the quality.
can it play mkv under yellow dog linux or linux or ubuntu? without any lag for 720p or 1080p mkv files?

My advice will be to get a PS3 for your gaming needs and save a bit later to get a cheap PC or lappie for your download needs....

Hey guys.. I recently downloaded the latest firmware (2.52). I tried using the console to download but it takes ages!! Then at the same time I use my laptop to do it and within 8 mins, it's done and my consolde still show 10%.

Anyone has any idea what went wrong? My PS3 is connected via wired and my laptop runs on the same network wirelessly...

Thanks...
