This looks like it will be good, hopefully there is some free content too. I'm wondering if this is anything like the Video Download Service for PS3, interface/ intergration.

Will this come to all regions ?(North America, Europe, and Asia)

Yea. No I'll skip this. Why would I want to pay for BBC shows when all good devices can run the iPlayer? But then why would I want to pay for anything that isn't the BBC?



I'll skip this, thanks. And it's much too expensive compared to having a proper Sky subscription.

# Anybody say TV Tuner!zeecron 2008-07-15 10:52
In my opinion this is lame since you have to be in a wifi spot to watch tv. Basicly it seems to me if im in an area where wifi is at im more then likely in a area where a regular tv is at. I will not buy this or pay some crappy monthly fee on garbage like this. If sony wants to port the TV Tuner to the US i would be more then happy to go pay 50 bucks or so for a TV tuner which would be very handy in a emergency where no power is around and also it would be awsome if they could add fm support for a psp TV Tuner!

There are so many addons sony could be making money off of in the US if they would get there heads out of there asses. I dont know why they waste time on things like this and i also dont understand why they make a psp update for something so stupid as a 1 new psp audio visualizer. In japan and UK it seems they are pushing this little handheld device to the max with TV Tuner, GPS and the Camera and instant messangers. For some reason in the US they expect us to buy a psp when theres really not much to expect from it. Most games for the psp really suck and gaming companys dont take much time to release games for psp and they dont take it very seriously. The main thing i have to say to sony is the only reason period that i bought a psp and im dead serious is cause of CFW and all the potential it has with 3rd party software. With what sony has to offer on a standard packaged psp in the US i would never have spent the 200 bucks for the slim. I hope they dont outsmart dax with future fm cause if they do i will never buy another psp and ill sell mine for dirt cheap cause its basicly pointless without cft!!!!!!!!!!

It wasn't that far back that Sony said a TV Tuner for the US is posible and that they have plans to do so, I'm pretty sure there is a QJ article all about this(less than 3 months ago). Also the 4.00 fw has references to tv tuner called something like 1segUS-JP.prx and 1segJP-JP.prx so it look likely to happen! So this will or should also work in other countries too!
