PS3-DVR Soon

PS3-DVR Soon

None

Sony has always touted their consoles as multimedia machines and emphasized their capabilities beyond gaming.  According to Warwick Light, the head of marketing for Sony Computer Entertainment in New Zealand, we might be seeing more multimedia use for the PS3 next year.

Light is claiming that the PS3 will receive a digital tuner sometime in 2008 that will allow the system to function as a digital recording device.  “We’re also hoping next year – about the same time that Freeview launches its terrestrial broadcasting service (expected to be in March) – to release a digital tuner for the PS3, turning it into a programmable TV recorder.” Light said.

We expect to hear more on this and other announcements at Leipzig and we will keep you informed as news becomes available.
