This is slightly off-topic, but what the heck. For those interested in following the whole Blu-ray saga as it unfolds before our bewildered eyes, Sony has revealed its new Viao AR notebook, the Premium version of which comes with a Blu-ray drive.
As well as playing commercial HD film releases, it also allows you to plug in a high-def camcorder and burn your home movies to Blue-ray discs in native 1080 res. Imagine the incredible visual clarity you'll be able to bring to masterworks such as 'Uncle Dave's 40th' and 'Cute kitten trying to run up curtains'.
Prices start at $3,499.99 - quite a bit more expensive than PS3 then. There seems to be a theme developing in my posts today...
