Achieving one million PS3 sales faster than both PSOne and PlayStation 2 is even more gratifying considering PS3 is a premium product introduced at a premium price. Our momentum will continue with the introduction of in-game communication in the summer, firmware update 2.4 and the strongest line-up of games through our third party partners and our own studios. I’d personally like to thank our trade and business partners for helping us on the start of the PS3 journey. |

I think Sony will start steaming ahead now with new software fetures and updates. It probably goes the same for sales, I already know three people who baught ps3 in the last week alone. HOME new linux pre-installed, Ingame xmb, Freeplay I could go on but Sony is just Shining now.
Come on Sony let the PS3 SHINE!!!!!!!!!

Way to miss the important bit QJ...
"Our momentum will continue with the introduction of in-game communication in the summer, firmware update 2.4"
IN-GAME COMMUNICATION. And you talk about BD-Live? He doesn't mention BD-Live. Seriously, what? Every wants to send messages while playing a game, and when it's release date finally confirmed, you miss it.

he was talking about when to expect the firmware update because sony already said that the BluerayLive will come at the end of may or june so if the ingame messaging will come in the summer to well... 2 + 2 + 4

quite right... article updated ;-)
however, to clarify, FW 2.4 won't necessarily bring in-game communication. see, if you parse Ray Maguire's statement, we can expect three different things.
1) in-game communication
2) firmware update 2.4
and 3) the strongest line-up of games through our third party partners and our own studios.
and so, "in-game communication" could be an entirely different object introduced in another FW aside from "firmware update 2.4".
who knows? maybe we can see the in-game communication thing in a 2.20 or 2.30 FW update?
quite an interesting discussion going here... we'll be sure to give you updates if we hear anything from sony. ;-)

Actually, it's not your Shift key, it's QJ: when you use the equals sign, it automatically changes it to a "+" sign.

thats what I call a no thanks and ***** you by QJ...
anyway on topic, I think it will come at late may or in june because the BlurayLive (profile 2.0) will come by that date... now with the in game xmb, Home (hope so because is after spring) and MGS4 will be a hell of a summer

very surprised since it is 40gb sku.
so mb price WAS the main factor that gave ps3 a slow start.

You do realise that 1 million in less that a year of release is way more than regular for a country like the UK!!!? And dont forget the stiff competition!

The US/Japan get cheaper versions, actually.
