A writer in the US is speculating it’ll cost the equivalent of $300 USD. I figure it’ll be half that.

Glenn, You could buy a Location Free hook-up that does stream to the psp.

It does about the same thing

Looks very cool.

I wonder though, is the PS3 running this program all the time? Or only when you boot this program? Meaning, if I’m playing a game, or whatever, is it still running, and will still record shows?

And do I have to leave my PS3 running the PlayTV application whenever I walk away?

I would *love* to have something like that PSP PlayTV app Dave, and I’m not willing to buy a PS3 to get it. Any chance we might see something like this from you guys (hint hint)? A PSP is a nice-sized device with a reasonable screen for something like this, lying on the bed in a hotel room…

Yah, the “Freeview” electronic program guide is sent over the air (DVB-T) the way many broadcasters do here in the US with ATSC over-the-air programming info. In my experience (US-only), the data quality has been hit or miss.
