PS3 2.60 firmware update available now, all 140MB of it

Jan 21st 2009 4:22AM on Engadget

This is why the PS3 hasn't been hacked yet - every update wipes the entire OS and re-installs.

Sony Reader pre-order now live in the UK, shipping in September

Why single out Sony - besides which you part of the cost is made up of Import Duty for goods made outside the UK and VAT. So you can add a single digit import duty and then 17.5% on top of that. Whereas the US prices quoted never include sales tax which add between 0 and 7%. So whilst it doesn't exactly match up, it certainly accounts for a large chunk of the difference.

"What is the best wireless surround sound speaker solution? I have a home theater where running wires is just not feasible. I have my own speakers, so I don't want a system that has speakers with integrated wireless. I've done a far amount of research and have only come across a few companies that even offer a reasonable solution: KEF, Kenwood and Rocketfish. Is there anything else out there? What do you recommend? Thank you!"
