Problem is I didn't want to pay anything for these so called ''free'' downloads, to having a silver or gold monthly fee. This seems to of changed however it would appear this Netflix is gold only so are a few other things you'd expect to be free by now. Not something I myself would want to keep paying monthly for, also seems as if they add other functions you'd expect to come as standard just to try and convince people into paying for something, to get easy access to 'free'' demos to playing online games with friends to photo sharing and video chat.
And again you'll find linux runs really quite well, with the Cell helping to render complex 3D graphics, that's not saying it will do good on all programs though. Also remembering that this is all through one console and not seperate components or monthly fee's. Having a free virtual 3D world called Home, to meet up in, launch games from, look at news, join clubs and exploring online RPGing as well as maps designed by sony and other game makers designed around their games, was a really refreshing console experience especially since it keeps improving and getting bigger all the time, being able to meet loads of people in one area is cool on a console, like having 256 players on one map in MAG, compared to the current standard of around 16 or so.
Ah yes it does come with a headset that plugs into the controller via a cable, it's just I personally would like more freedom. And by wireless keyboard do you mean a actual fully sized one or the small one they released, I noticed a company has released an unoffiical adapter for people to go out and buy seperatly for use with a keyboard and mouse.
I'm also using one of the first PS3's which to me was quite a joy considering noise to what I was used to hearing on my 360. Thing is I have no need to google things, because I've experienced all of these things not just read what people have said. I also haven't actually said the PS3 or 360 is better, I'm just point out what can be done with the PS3 and how well it works, to what other things I've personally experienced.
And waiting for HDMI from a 2005 release to late 2007 HDMI release is quite a wait to me espcially since to me it should of come as standard, so people wouldn't need to pay out even more to be able to have a HDMI port, although it would seem you'd have a more reliable one as well, though to me they should of replaced the ones that had to keep going in for repairs with the new internal changes, no one elses fault that they felt the need to hurry it to the market not noticing so many flaws just to get sales up for a good xmas/after xmas time. Though I am looking forward to seeing what they do with their next Xbox when it comes too it, I'm sure most if not all of those past problems will be made to a minimum after that round.
