The Great PS3 2 of 2 Ciao Users found the following review helpful
Rating from MoneyB007 5 Stars ()

Advantages Graphics, Network, Blu Ray, Wireless Controllers

Disadvantages Small Hard Drive

The Best Console on the market. When first launched, many of us were uncomfortable about the price but when you consider it has one of the best Blu Ray players in the market built in - Its a bargin. And with Sony now having won the war with Film makers choosing Blu Ray over HD DVD this will put XBox 360 at a severe disadvantage. Graphics and sound are excellent in gaming mode and picture quality and sound stunning in Blu Ray. One of the areas I use it most for is showing slide shows. I have a Home Server with Music and Pictures stored on it. The data is then sent wirelessly around the house and of course the PS3 picks this up and you can play music or watch the slideshow, now thats clever as there are no wires. This route also stores valuable space on the PS3 hard drive as the data is on the server. This is a really impressive piece of kit and I continually find new features every day. eg using your Blue Tooth mobile phone headset to speak and listen to other gamers or speak with friends.

I have had a problem though. I had to have a new one sent to me though as the Blu Ray Reader stopped working, this must have been a drive problem. The service of the team was great. They sent me a new one within 3 days no problems reported since and that was 3 months ago. Shame it happened though.

The internet facility is useful ie going into Utube and showing some 'Weird Al' on the big TV is hilarious. However, if you plan to use the PS3 as the main Internet service I would strongly reccommend a wireless keyboard and mouse.

Brilliant system.
