[font=\"Arial\"]On today's PlayStation Business Brief '2006, Sony has revealed quite some more details of the upcoming PS3. Here they are:

* PS3 will be the first Next-Gen console with the HDMI video interface.
* All the PS3 games will be on the Blu-ray disc for anti-piracy purpose.
* The development machine and development kit is now finished.
* The network service of the PS3 will basically be free, and will be deployed with the release of the console.
* The CELL processor will be able to implement the 4th dimension (the time???)
* PS3 will come with a 2.5' 60G HDD as a standard specification.
* The OS of the PS3 will be Linux.
* The network service of the PS3 will be in co-operation with GameSpy.
* PS/PS2 games will be fully supported, plus with much better resolution.
* Sony will be replenishing the market with 1 million PS3 per month after the release.

Very interesting facts to learn. But still, the delay is the fact we have to accept now. The PS3 is officially delayed from this spring to the November of 2006, for a global release among Asia, North America and Europe.[/font]

[font="Tahoma"]Implementing the fourth dimension sounds a little scary; but it's only by speculation that the fourth dimension is *truely" time - most will remember that the fourth dimension is adding something on top of something (hard to explain - but look up the theories of Hypercubes and suchs). It'll require alot of backend power to do something like that; but, I don't really see how it could be proven useful at all though. I guess we'll wait and see. [/font]
