Sony PS3 goes for... The Grid!
So, with all the computing power of the Cell processor at their fingertips, and the relatively easy to manage number of channels of Freeview, Sony have gone for a very conservative interface for their new PlayTV PVR add-on to the PS3.
It's in HD, so the type should look nice, and isn't exactly ugly... It just seems like a bit of a wasted opportunity to do something more, with a device that could and is likely connected to broadband too. TiVo++ at the very least. But no, seems we have yet another grid: 8 channels x 2 hours to wade through. At least it has a search...
